Nanny Tales and Papa Stories









These drawing are the first batch of illustrations that I have been working on for my drawing class. When my sister and I were young, our grandmother, Olwen, would tell us stories about all the adventures she had as a child. Before passing away, she wrote them all down for us in a beautiful scarlet coloured notebook. The drawing is an investigation of my personal history. I reread all the beloved stories from my childhood, selected a few favourites and decided to illustrate them. The drawings are not currently in their proper narrative order, as I still have several illustrations to complete and have yet to bind my book. More to come soon.
