#marchmeetthemaker Day 3 : How you started. Technically my first published piece was a weather drawing I did in primary school that got featured on Midlands Today (they sent me a t-shirt) but it was Beowulf that made me feel like a real illustrator. I'd always wanted to work with @foliosociety and I met the wonderful art director, Sheri, at a @theaoi portfolio surgery. She rang me up a couple of weeks later and asked me if I'd be up for it - illustrate Anglo Saxons for The Folio Society? Yes please!! The second pic here is the first illu we did, which was sent to Seamus Heaney for his approval before we want ahead with the rest. Fortunately he liked it! . #marchmeetthemakerday3 #day3 #beautifulbooks #foliosociety #historyillustration #anglosaxonillustration #linocut #linoprint #reliefprint #reliefprinting #blockprinting #Beowulf #SeamusHeaney #ukprintmakers #ukillustrators #illustration #bookillustration #bookcovers #booklovers #aoi #aoimember
