Rose Blake – författare

Bob is a pampered indoor cat. Bunk is a wild-spirited outdoor cat. They’re both very different, but maybe they’re pretty similar too… A beautiful, funny book about accepting others and making friends. This is a tale of two cats: Bob, the pampered indoor cat who likes curling up on the sofa and watching TV, and Bunk, the wild-spirited outdoor cat who likes rolling about in the garden and playing with leaves. They’re both pretty different, but when Bob and Bunk meet they realise they’re similar, too…This unique picture book brings together two brilliant author-illustrators to collaborate. The illustrations are a mix of both Maisie Paradise Shearring and Rose Blake’s work, each illustrating the vibrant and amusing worlds of their own real-life cats, and what happens when these worlds collide. Bob and Bunk is a charming and entertaining picture book about accepting others and making friends, recognising our similarities as well as our differences.

A fun, creative and engaging introduction to the work of one of Britain's most exciting artists. With bold, colourful and playful illustrations by Rose Blake, Meet David Hockney is packed with make-and-dos and inspiring activities for young budding artists

Meet the Artist is a series of activity books that introduces children to renowned artists in a fun and engaging way. Each book introduces an artist's prominent themes, ideas and key artworks. In this book the work of British pop artist Peter Blake is brought to life by his daughter Rose Blake, author and illustrator of Meet the Artist: David Hockney and We are All Artists. Peter Blake is best known for co-creating the sleeve design for The Beatles album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

In Egg and Spoon, the artist and illustrator Rose Blake tells the story of a childhood fuelled on art and creativity, infused with travel and steeled by the more quotidian aspects of family life growing up with the artist Peter Blake. Surrounded by a cast of originals and eccentrics and taking in backdrops such as London, L.A. and Paris, Blake creates poetic snapshots of a family, with the joys of a life dedicated to art and the inevitable fragilities and poignancy of age and, pertinently, ill health. The effect is that of a literary photo album, with all the charm and character and emotional intensity those documents communicate.
