The ‘temptation” Rosemary Sutcliff once said: “is to try & use everything you’ve found out in…research. That can be fatal, because you…only need to use about 1/10. It’s…like an iceberg…It has to be there, because it gives you the freedom of the period. But you don’t use it.”
“I do write every day… I feel guilty if I don’t. I feel as if I haven’t really used the day unless I’ve got something down on paper to show for it.”

Inspired by the illustrator #CharlesKeeping, Year 6 have created artwork based on the narrative poem “The Highwayman”. They used white chalk on a black background and charcoal on a white background. The final pieces look stunning! #artwork #thehighwayman #alfrednoyes

A most lovely thing has happened. The leading Japanese Gawain scholar Hiroki Okamoto has translated my Tale of Sir Gawain into Japanese. I provided a brief Foreword but all the hard work was Professor Okamoto's. Delighted that the original #CharlesKeeping illustrations are kept.
#CharlesKeeping 作『TheSpider'sWeb』奥さんが幼い頃からのおさがり。作品自体の素晴らしさもあるが30年以上も前に義母の友人が和訳したらしい冊子がまた凄い。とても温もりを感じさせる字と和訳の表現が秀逸。絵本はみんな共通だけどコレは我が家だけの特別。

Responses to my short #CharlesKeepingApprecation thread were lovely so I decided to create a longer one in order to extend our insight into this remarkable illustrator. All sources have been drawn from the perfect periodical, @BooksForKeeps (1/10)
A very short thread on the incredibly talented #CharlesKeeping for anyone interested. Do you have a favourite or memorable Keeping illustration?

A little thread on British artist/author/illustrator, #CharlesKeeping
Born in Lambeth, Keeping has a strong childhood memory of peering through holes in a fence outside his home: 'It was like looking at things on a stage.' These 'tableaux' of moments inspired his work (1/3)

@SCBWI_BI @littledoorbooks This is such an impossible question! I was brought up on a rich diet of 60s-80s picture book greats, with @ShirleyHughes_, #judithkerr, @HelenOxenbury, #mauricesendak, #charleskeeping and #ezrajackkeats featuring heavily. #SCBWIchat
#CharlesKeeping (22 Sep 1924 – 16 May 1988) was an illustrator who first came to prominence with his illustrations of Rosemary Sutcliff's historical novels for children. He illustrated the complete works of Charles Dickens for the Folio Society.

#OTD in 1988 the artist #CharlesKeeping died. His lithograph 'Horses Pulling' will be on display in 'Between Two Worlds' when we re-open. Once the exhibition closes it will be transferred from the Derbyshire Schools Library Service to @AberArtSchool #empoweringcollections
#CharlesKeeping was much more than just a #blackandwhite #artist as he illustrated childrens books with full-colour illustrations such as this example from 'The Beginning of Armadillos' by #RudyardKipling.
See more of these illustrations are displayed in our current #exhibition.
