In this exhibition we get to see pages from books before they go to print\, alongside examples of her f inished pieces. Lee-Mackie says of her work: “Looking back at the narrat ives and environments that surrounded me as a child\, both imagined and re al\, has been a constant source of inspiration. I am fascinated by other p eople’s perceptions and observations of what they see when they look at my illustrations. Do they see their own translation of the world\, or do t hey see mine?” The collection has a real magical feel and children can g et their photos taken next to Red Riding Hood and the Wolf or Orme the Vik ing. She says: “I use fairy tales and folklore\, animal companions\, and outdoor settings as common themes. Familiar childhood icons are used to e xplore the gap between the nostalgic and the actual childhood experience. ”\nEmma Jayne Allsup’s work has been used by H&\;M and M&\;S to name just two of her clients. Her illustrations show a curiosity about the environment and sea creatures\, with all the different shapes and colours they come in. Jayne says: “My aim was to capture the\nbeauty of what li es beneath our oceans. You could say that it is an other world down there. ”\nIllustrator and pattern designer Lois Tierney has used art to highlig ht the diversity of autistic people and to celebrate them. 18 of the portr aits of Tierney’s autistic friends and peers from Spectrum are on displa y here. The Walker Art Gallery commissioned Tierney to create prints for t he Coming Out exhibition and those playful illustrated slogans make up par t of this exhibition. Her work on display shows the power of illustration to communicate often very complex messages.\nRunning through the summer at The World of Glass (St Helens) until 3rd September 2021.
