Me Da's A Miner

Always nice to work with talented people and I was delighted to work with Matt Reilly (poet) again.  I wanted to create something for a mining museum which had a feeling of warmth and nostalgia.  When I spoke to Matt about him producing a poem I told him this and gave him some dialect words to incorporate into the poem.  I created this illustration from a photo I took when I was at woodhorn.  The colours and feeling I think are spot on.  I'm loving the love this has already received.
