BurnThis is the story of Birdman. Fifteen years old; no family; no friends - a loner with nothing to lose. One lazy afternoon; down on the riverbank; the friends he never had narrate the story of his last dramatic day. First performed at the National Theatre as part of the NTShell Connections programme; this powerful and inspiring play is a unique portrait of teenage life; drawn with startling and refreshing honestyRosalind Esther thinks science is fantastic; but her brother Joe is unconvinced. Then Rosalind appears and they find themselves in the middle of an experiment - the experiment of her life. Rosalind: A Question of Life tells the story of a passionate scientist who helps to discover the structure of DNA only to be written out of the history books. A moving and brilliantly theatrical exploration of ambition and regret.

I have been involved in the technical making of The Creative Eye; and as such; I have read it. And I must say I have read it with great interest and benefit; as so much of this book has to do with creativity; visual perception; our brain and how we see... and that is very useful to a photographer too.I have also attended a drawing workshop held by Heather Spears; based on her teachings in this book. Her approach to helping others translate in line what their eyes see is quite effective: unexpected magic materializes on the paper in front of you when you follow her instructions.Read this book; reflect on it; try the exercises. I am sure it will become a treasured book you will return to time and time again.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. How to Draw from Life Elegantly and TrulyBy Katerina FretwellHeather Spears book The Creative Eye enthralled me with its spiritual; artistic and scientific approach to seeing and drawing. The quotes entertained informed and catalyzed me into action and my life drawings improved immeasurably. Most significant is seeing/drawing the whole; not chopping the poor model into various body parts! Her book is brilliant in guiding me through the process and should be required; on the curriculum in any art school; and its worth every penny in results. Lumbs; torms and strecks; invented body names without the connotative baggage of conventional names short-circuited my left brain dominance. Her poetry about seeing enhanced her instructions.Katerina Fretwell; poet and artist0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. a must readBy CustomerA must read for an artist or anyone who aspires to see.
