  SHORTLISTED in The Creative Book Awards 2024.
  A creative and beautiful book packed with inspiring ideas to help you capture likenesses and explore personalities in stitch, from a well-loved textile artist.
  Anne Kelly's evocative and nostalgic work often incorporates portraits – of friends, family, historical figures and even pets. Within these pages she shares her approach to textile portraiture, bringing in a wealth of different embroidery techniques, including hand and machine embroidery, quilting and appliqué, to render in cloth the nuances of facial expressions and the personalities of her subjects. The book covers:
  • Selfies at Home: making the perfect self-portrait in cloth.
  • Representation and Culture: how portraits have been used in textile art for cultural expression around the world.
  • Stylized Imagery: going beyond the traditional portrait into abstraction.
  • Place and Time: creating a sense of place with portraiture, sometimes incorporating photographs.
  • Narratives: how to create a fuller story using deeply personal ephemera and related imagery.
  • Pet Projects: immortalising your pets in your textile work.
  Beautifully illustrated with stunning examples of her own work and that of intriguing textile artists who specialise in portraiture from around the world, this is the ideal book for embroiderers and textile artists who want to introduce this often tricky subject area into their work.

  Once called "the most gifted character actor of our time," Lionel Barrymore (1878-1954) was part of the illustrious Barrymore acting dynasty. Although he garnered success on stage and screen and was a talented actor, writer, director, visual artist, and composer, he never escaped the shadow of his family. Barrymore won the Academy Award for Best Actor in A Free Soul and was nominated for Best Director for Madame X. He is best known for his role as Mr. Potter in It's a Wonderful Life and as the voice of Ebenezer Scrooge. He spent the last two decades of his career playing versions of his signature character—the curmudgeonly but lovable gentleman—in a variety of films. Barrymore worked alongside some of Hollywood's most recognizable names, and his legacy is enshrined at the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 
   
   
   
  In Lionel Barrymore, Kathleen Spaltro examines Barrymore as an individual. This comprehensive study divides Barrymore's life into three acts. Act One follows Barrymore's early days. Act Two details Barrymore's establishment as a fixture at MGM. Act Three expounds on Barrymore's curation of his trademark character and his fateful final years. Spaltro unearths Barrymore's personal challenges, recounts his difficulties with his family, and delves into the devastating losses Barrymore suffered. Lionel Barrymore is a multifaceted portrait of a brilliant character actor.

  Resilience in The Rain is about being courageous during the most volatile times of life. It is about being a friend to those who others have shut out and it is about being fair to all mankind. This book touches on believing in yourself, dealing with mental illness and the affects it has on our professionals who are trained to service the community. The difficult decisions on the job, that are experienced, while having to serve and protect our fellow citizens, in the most turbulent situations, is touched upon throughout the audiobook. It is about learning to have patience and listening to each others dreams, losses, and sticking together throughout one anothers internal struggles. Resilience In The Rain is about not magnifying how big your troubles are but magnifying how big your God is. It is about respecting all races, gender, and religions that focus on the goodness in life for all cultures. Resilience In The Rain is a followup to (my paperback, Abundance In The Thunder, a book about hope) and it aims to encourage and inspire the world through honest words and true intentions of peace and love.
