Disillusioned with wood he undertook a degree graduating from the University of Portsmouth with a B.A. (Hons) in Economic History. He was a member of the Royal Naval Reserves for many years but it is in poetry that he finds his favourite medium of expression. He is interested in everything and has a decade of unfinished projects to complete. The author is currently a civil servant.
Rachel Wellstead is new to formal illustration but has drawn and painted for her own pleasure since childhood. She was born in Liss on October 22nd 1973 and went to local schools. After leaving school, with varying degrees of success and an A level in art, she worked in various unexciting jobs, until deciding that teaching might not be for her. She graduated from University College Chichester with a B.A (Hons) in English and followed it up with a Post Graduate Teaching Degree. Following a year teaching, a son and a slightly uncomfortable divorce, she finally settled into her current profession of Youth Work. Her heart lies with the artistic side of life, in poetry, prose, Shakespeare and anything beautiful to the eye or ear. She met the author of this book whilst learning to dance – a kindred spirit and a friend. A Passage from Afar is the first joint venture between these two artists.view less
