My illustrated childhood memoir
About my 'memory paintings'.
Inspired by Neil Curtis in his book, 'The Memory Book', my memory paintings catch impressions and moments from my first ten years, in St Andrews, Scotland in the 60's. They are all 12 x 9 cm, mostly pen and watercolour, on Arches HP. They are now published in an 8" x 10" book through Blurb.

Alison -- these are so beautiful -- all of your sketches, especially the memory ones, are so touching and so lovingly rendered. BEAUTIFUL WORK!
I am assuming this is where you come by your red hair. I am again assuming your hair is red as a lot of the memory sketches you do have a girl with red hair. Lovely drawing, wonderful composition.
Alison you do such wonderful sketches, and your small stories about your memories are inspiring, (for me to remember mine!)Penny in South Australia
I read your entire blog this morning. Lovely stories with the drawings. They're awesome! Thanks for sharing them.
