The Good Ship Endeavour....


We have recently been exhibiting our work as part of the 'Survive' exhibition at Leeds Metropolitan University. The exhibition runs at until the 31st March and features work by some highly established illustrators and we are very proud to have been included. Here is our biography as included in the exhibition...

"Welcome to the curious, make believe world of Lord Whitney...

In a time before the lamps were lit in the land of the shire of York two strangers in search of the magical world of crafts and learning met in the hamlet of Leeds. There, in an old ruined tower which had once belonged to Lord Polytechnic they found themselves casting spells. Soon the magical world of Lord Whitney came into being. Years later, and now outside the tower, they discovered that wizards had stolen all the creative employments… and so the curious world of Lord Whitney took shape.

Creating life sized illustrations with everyday objects and a little imagination, the duchesses of all things make believe aim to create artwork that would inspire imagination in all. With A belief that their fellow Loiners and beyond should have some fun and be inspired!

With a playful approach to their work and just the right amount of eccentricity their illustrations have now begun to step off the paper and come alive… "
