Kenneth Townsend





Yesterday I saw friends, thank goodness for long weekends, including one friend whom I hadn't seen for a very long time who was visiting Edinburgh.
These are some tiles by Kenneth Townsend, that I saw in The National Museum of Scotland, part of his menagerie series. Kenneth was prolific in many media and a fantastic illustrator.

  1. They are beautiful, capturing an exaggerated essence of each animal. The horned sheep is perfect.
