Setting up 18 studios, Long Eaton, Nottingham

I am naturally an untidy person. However, one consequence of my Wednesday book illustration classes is that the house is more organised. The sessions are going well. Penny has written numerous stories for the grandchildren, but always without pictures. As she hasn’t drawn and painted since her school days I thought it might be a challenge to teach her skills which have laid dormant for over 50 years. Her imaginative tales need pictures to tempt children into her warm and wonderful world. And after 6 session I think she has surprised both of us on how well she has progressed. She has a curiousity and openess which makes Wednesdays a pleasure. I look forward to seeing the book in print.
