                          Painting Britten: 100 Visions of the Music

This is the title of my Britten painting project and of the book of the paintings, with commentaries by Andrew Plant, to be published in June 2026. The cover of the book is shown below, featuring the painting Suite on English Folk Tunes, op. 90 'A time there was...'. (watercolour, 16x20cm).

A link to the whole series of paintings will be displayed here in May. Pre-sales of all the paintings featured, will be offered exclusively to members of my mailing list, prior to the launch at the Aldeburgh Festival (12–28 June). To sign up for my mailing list, please email me at janemackay@btinternet.com, or get in touch via the 'Contact' button on this website.
