Commissioning

Author and editorial management, If the Paintings Could Talk & The Art of Worship

Worked with the publications department of the National Gallery, London, by devising and creating a new-style guide to their collection If the Paintings Could Talk and supported (as editor) the former vicar at St Martin-in-the-Fields – now Bishop of Salisbury – Nicholas Holtam in writing his The Art of Worship.

When the National Gallery Company was looking to broaden its publishing with more 'trade' titles, Alysoun took us through from concept to the finished books with flair and editorial integrity, evident in, for example, If the Paintings Could Talk. She's also a pleasure to work with, which counts.
