About the Project
My main final year project was an illustrated anthology of collected folklore and folk tales from the island of Lewis and Harris. The stories were collected through meetings with locals and storytellers on multiple research trips to the island, and from archival research at the School of Scottish Studies. I also made a drawing journal during one of the research trips, collecting colour palettes, pigments, materials for natural dyeing and observational drawings and paintings. The final book was a 60 page collection, a smaller version of the final book that I aim to get published or self publish.
