Adult Anthology – ISBN: 9780646821948
A portrait is a representative analysis giving deep insight into people, places, objects or ideas. It can be fictional, impressionist or realist. It is also the physical shape ‘taller than wide’. What portraits define our familiar everyday? What portraits explore the unique and diverse?
This creative anthology of stories, poetry and art explores the theme of ‘portrait’ to show us who we really are or could be, who we once were and what might await us. Featuring a rich diversity of artistic medium and literary genre, it is a testament to the skill and passion of its creators, their innovation, imagination and collaboration. It is a journey that offers adventure as well as self-reflection, truth, and hope.
