One of the great pleasures of
writing Galway Bay Folk Tales was working again with the illustrator Marina
Wild. Marina had previously illustrated the adventure poems for children that I
wrote for the Múscailt Arts Festival. The images she created for the chapters
of Galway Bay Folk Tales, are deceptively simple yet with a quirkiness and
little added details that bring a whole new way of engaging with and appreciating
the stories. However, illustrating is only one of Marina's artistic skills as can be seen by checking out her website:

Now Marina and her fellow
artist Dagmar Drabent - whose work shifts between figurative and abstraction as
it investigates the borderland between realities - are launching a joint Exhibition
of their work. The opening night of their 'Metaphorica' is on Friday, 14
August, at 5:30pm upstairs in the Town Hall Theatre, Galway. Get along and give your eyes, brain and soul a
treat.
