Collecting The Eggs Print

EARTH MEADOW is a collection of 53 original paintings which form a pictorial diary of a childhood in Wales from 1930-1944, painted retrospectively from memory by artist Eironwy Llewellyn whilst in her seventies. The jaunty, naive style is intended to convey her early life as remembered ‘through the eyes of a child’, with the various scenes charmingly recalling life as it was lived during this period. Each painting is accompanied by commentary by the artist on its context and subjects, creating a uniquely personal and insightful record of the bygone traditions and community activity of rural Wales, and has recently been turned into a stunning coffee-table style book, entitled EARTH MEADOW. Eironwy Llewellyn, born in 1930 in Aberystwyth, Wales, was a free spirit, and as an artist and sculptor she trained at Swansea College of Art 1946-1951, receiving a National Diploma in Design in Modelling and Sculpture, and Art Teacher Diploma as well as being an Associate Member of the British Association of Art Therapists. Artist and writer Sara Llewellyn has compiled the artwork and writings created by her mother to preserve and share them with the world.
