have made beautiful books for Mum
At the Imagine Festival yesterday Mum was presented with two wonderful-looking concertina books by George and Anna. It was all rather rushed so we didn’t get a proper look at them until we got home… but then OH WOW.
We were absolutely bowled over!
Inspired by Mum’s own books, these young artists had reinterpreted the words in their own original way.
Here is George’s, with a bold confident brilliant line…
and here is Anna’s, with exquisite fresh spring colours …
I’m just going to pick out two details, which show ambitious draughtsmanship.
I KNOW how hard these things are to draw, so I am full of admiration…
A round of applause please for Anna and George!
We’re really happy your Mum liked them. George says he’s reading Dixie O’Day In the Fast Lane to Dad and Anna tonight (Anna’s already read it but still wants to hear it again.) Love from us all xxx
Dear Anna and George – and Adam! Thank you so much for your lovely message. How brilliant that you are enjoying Dixie O’Day in the Fast Lane – Mum and I would so love to be a fly on the wall to hear…
yes indeed she absolutely LOVES your books, we will take lots of photos before safely returning them to you for your collection. xxx
