Next illustration of This image was commissioned by the Hampshire Field Club. Nothing of this building survived above foundation level The first step was to reconstruct a 2-D plan of the priory. The wireframe image was then printed out at A2 scale and transferred to paper using a lightbox. The remainder was done with different hardnesses of pencil + grey matter.

Wyndham Lewis' 1918 work "Tarr" is hailed as one of the first modernist novels. The action takes place in Paris just before the outbreak of the First World War. Sentimental German postcards of the era provide stylistic inspiration. The plus-size Anatasya is modified from a charity-shop find. The rest is invention. Watercolour really comes into its own in depicting furs as well as aerial perspective on trees. The randomness of the effects rivals that of nature.
