I couldn't resist putting these up for your delectation. Here are the covers of the six lucky winners of the Crystal Clear Creators pamphlet competition. They are stunning and thanks to Helen Walsh for her beautiful designs, hope to write more about these. The launch for the pamplets is on Friday 2nd March at De Montfort University Leicester, at the Cultural Exchanges Festival see here. The lucky pamphleteers are Roy Marshall, Aly Stoneman, Charles G. Lauder, Hannah Stevens, Andrew 'Mulletproofpoet' Graves and Jess Mayhew, who I mentored for this project. I should also mention Jonathan Taylor, a wonderful editor and of course I knew first-hand how hard he worked on these.
Gorgeous cover designs, Maria!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to hear about the artist's interpretations of themes within the pamphlets.
Looking forward to the launch and to purchasing these beauties...
Hi Jayne, Helen Walsh designed the covers. Having proof read the poems/prose she went for designs that seemed relevant to the contents. She's actually a designer and not officially an artist, but she certainly has an eye for it. M
