About: "Mind and Body" is a contemporary collection of original paintings by artist Pam Winbolt.
"These works explore the strength and fragility of the human body, considering physical and mental boundaries and the way in which we are confined or restrained by these contexts. Taking a look 'inside' is a fascinating and beautiful journey. The mind is an instrument of such complexity, so that with so little knowledge I can only pretend to tinkle a tune, Even so, it is quite clear that by using the mind with discipline and energy we can overcome so much. Ageing of the body is a fascinating process which begins from the day we are born. It's an adventure and privilege to travel through to old age. The lines, wrinkles and wisdom which age brings to the face should be celebrated as sadly not everyone gets the opportunity to experience it."
Medium: Original oil on canvas painting
Size: 100cm by 80cm
Rental: Available to rent, under Rental Price Category FIVE
Artist Info: Pam's career in the Visual Arts followed a professional career as a Ballet Dancer, after which she studied for a Fine Art Degree at the Norwich School of Art.
"My work is inspired by the connections between the mind, body, pain, healing, and ageing as well as our emotional attachment to water. Each series of work has evolved from a journey to see how mind and body work in union, strength comes from fragility showing hope and a positive attitude. Concentration of the mind can conquer some of the pain in the body and the activity of the body might heal the torment of the mind, using the mind with discipline and energy can overcome so much. Travelling through the physical and mental boundaries is a wonderful experience."

the art is great and really helps to set the scene of this ...
Format: Paperback
It's cute book. the art is great and really helps to set the scene of this magical world. I took issue with the characters and the narrative. The main character is a werewolf who is very self conscious about it but it's never really clear since apparently, there are not only plenty of werewolves but also people who can shift into other animals. Her best friend is a centaur who I found a little grating with his "lol XD so random" personality. I didn't find much fault with the girlfriend character but I didn't understand their relationship. the main character starts the book having had one date with her girlfriend they seem to have some issues (over what I thought was very minor things) and decide at the end of the book to go to couple's therapy to solve them but like, they weren't together for that. I assume maybe a month has passed, just break up. I just didn't understand that.
The narrative itself didn't seem tight. One character has cryptic visions that didn't really seem to pan out or really have the gravity she seemed to put to them. there is a meta narrative involving a book the main character likes and the events in that book mirror the events in the comic but I didn't really see it that strongly and it seemed to have little use. The main conflict seems to be solved very quickly and with little fanfare.
All in all, it's not a bad book. i just found it a bit weak. It's not amazing, nor above average. But it's also not garbage or terrible. It's won't have the greatest of appeal but I'm not upset I bought it and it's not a waste of time. However, I wouldn't read any additional work of this series.

Obsessed

I really hope there will be more of this comic coming soon. It was so well thought out. The colors were incredible. The fluidity of every character was great. Enjoyed this so very much.
