The works were exhibited in Beerwolf books for valentine’s day, and are now moving to Howl in Penryn.
I chose to illustrate Leonards Cohen’s ‘So Long, Marianne’:

My recent illustration work for Porthmeor studios introduced me to the work of Edinburgh born St Ives painter Wilhelmina Barns-Graham (1912-2004). I really enjoyed looking at her paintings through my research, in particular considering the use of colour and composition. I found lots of really lovely examples in the book ‘Wilhelmina Barns-Graham: A Studio Life’ which I couldn’t locate online, but here are two brilliant images which I did find:
According to the Tate website, ‘Glacier Crystal, Grindelwald’ (below), was an attempt to show the galicer in Switzerland from multiple viewpoints, ‘from above, through and all round, as a bird flies, a total experience’
