Kathleen Hale



Kathleen Hale-illustrator

Inspirations:

Augustus John [helped her meet many more eccentric artists]
Bernard Meninsky
Vanessa Bell
Duncan Grant

Work:
Well Kathleen Hale was most known for her number of Orlando books naming a few:
Orlando’s home life
Orlando’s evening out
Orlando the marmalade cat goes to the moon
Orlando the marmalade cat: A camping holiday
Orlando keeps a dog
Orlando and the three graces


My thought:
Well as a graphic designer I don’t have great knowledge on Kathleen Hale. Even as a child I remember reading a few of her orlando books and admired her for her style of drawing and painting. I am not a great fan but appreciate her work and lifetime achievement.
