About the Artist: Gwendolen Gwen Mary John was a Welsh artist who worked in France for most of her career. Her paintings, mainly portraits of anonymous female sitters, are rendered in a range of closely related tones. Although in her lifetime, John's work was overshadowed by that of her brother Augustus and her mentor and lover Auguste Rodin, awareness and esteem for John's artistic contributions has grown considerably since her death.

Mediterranean Bay Seen through an Arch

Work in progress, depicting the infamous dragons of Dinas Emrys. I feel this has potential to become something quite special, a tapestry, an embossed and foiled note book? What do you think?

Flora MacDonald (1722-1790), was a young woman from the Outer Hebrides in Scotland. Here, in 1746, she met Prince Charles Edward Stuart, fleeing following his defeat at the Battle of Culloden. She disguised him as a maidservant, 'Bettie Burke', and helped him to escape by boat to the Isle of Skye. Flora was imprisoned for a time in London, and her bravery made her a celebrity. Her portrait was painted, she was the subject of poetry and she met Frederick, Prince of Wales. She later spent five years living in North Carolina, in the United States, where her husband fought on the British side in the American Wars of Independence.
