Rebecca is working on her first book with Mary Kennelly. It will feature up to 40 prints of Rebecca’s paintings and each visual will respond to Mary’s words through poetry.

It is to be a journey of two minds through painting and poetry, where both share a similar imagination as sparks of inspiration are taken from each other.

The work is based on the creative spirit and promises to be a unique collaboration.
