Oil portrait of Guislaine Vincent de Damas by Consuelo Child-Villiers

Guislaine Vincent de Damas

Guislaine Vincent de Damas, a nom de plume, has two lives. One – while waiting for the magic of a sentence and the secret alchemy of literature to happen – when she writes, sculpts, draws, and plays with her grandchildren. And one where she works as analytical psychotherapist (Jungian) with a private practice in Central London.

She says this fable wrote itself. In this book she writes of her wish that its enticing and healing effect acts on the reader as it did on herself.

No Name is Guislaine’s first published not-quite-fairy-tale. Three more are to follow.

About THE Illustrator

Consuelo Child-Villiers

Consuelo Child-Villiers is a long established artist who free falls into a world of her own.
No net. Independent. Thus her work is quietly widely collected in Europe and North America.

Figures and creatures and objects and their secrets dwell in her vision which is both playful and serious. Consuelo’s medium of expression is colour, colour as material fact, communication and soul-song in paint, usually and mostly oil paint.

Consuelo studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence, Italy. Her mother-ground is centuries-old rooted in Spain, Mexico and Italy. Her father-spirit is Irish English. This is her second work in illustration working with watercolour.
