#StandingStoneSunday: The Book Launch

The author Dewi Bowen by the artist Melvyn Williams.

Hunting The Wild Megalith“, the book of the journey of the Boar Hunt (Y Twrch Trwyth) is being launched this coming Friday (March 31st) at Swansea’s prestigious GS Artists gallery. The book is based on the theory that the route of The Boar Hunt in the Mabinogion includes most of the major Neolithic and Bronze Age stone monuments across South Wales. Author Dewi Bowen has painstakingly mapped them and co-written this book (with Olwyn Pritchard) which is not just learned but also full of entertaining stories, humour and art. 

Swansea-based artist and filmmaker Melvyn Williams drew the portrait of Dewi above and also made several short films of Dewi’s explorations across South Wales, hunting the wild megaliths. Here’s one of the films, with Dewi, me and various Welsh horses.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
