Tessa Newcomb
We all have places we are attached to. Some of us can?t get to theirs. When I have been away, or something has happened, or every day, I go for my usual walk. I see what changes have taken place.

This beautiful new book, compiled by the artist's daughter and grandson, reveals Mary Newcomb as an acute observer of her surroundings, reproducing her copious sketches alongside more finished paintings and short diary extracts to draw out the many themes which preoccupied her throughout her career as an artist.
