Painting the Tales – the book!
A week ago I finished the text for ‘Painting the tales’, a book due to be published next year by the History press featuring full colour plates of 84 of my book cover illustrations. The accompanying text contains anecdotes and information about my illustration process and my thoughts about the tales I chose. It also contains comments from some of the authors and the foreword has been written by the excellent Taffy Thomas MBE, the first storytelling laureate.
I will share news of the publication date and where you order in advance as soon as I have it, some will be available direct from me and will be signed and contain an extra little gift for my fans…

Painting the tales book to be published!
So now the contract has landed I can officially share the news with you all. 🙂
The history press are publishing a book of the folktales cover art I have produced for them over the last 8 years in June of next year, it is provisionally entitled ‘Painting the Tales’
My illustrations will be reproduced at their original size with accompanying text by me and an introduction discussing my working process and my experience of collaborating with storytellers.
I am incredibly excited that this is happening (as well as a little daunted at the prospect of writing 20,000+ words by October! )
Thank you to everyone who follows my work, buys my work, commissions work or is just generally supportive and lovely. Artists need patrons. We can’t survive without you. Take a bow.
