The brief was to complete an illustration for three short stories in Angela Carter's "The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories" along with a front cover for the book. The stories selected were "The Bloody Chamber", "Puss In Boots" and "The Company Of Wolves".
I'd never read any Angela Carter before but a couple of people had mentioned to me in the past that they could see resonances of her work in some of my paintings (I work in a bookshop so have a lot of friends who are much better read than me). I loved the book and will be reading all her other work as well as revisiting the stories in this collection.
