'Re-inacting Picasso', Figurative, Nude painting inspired by Picasso's paintings. Beautiful composition of earthy tones and reds, and oranges. Ghislaine was born in Eccles and studied Fine Art at Newcastle University. She lived in London and Paris before moving back to her native North-West with her husband, the art historian Michael Howard, making their home in Glossop in the Peak District.

She relishes the physicality and emotional power that comes about when line, form and colour collide, hence the title of her recent publication, written with Michael; Ghislaine Howard...
