I found this wonderful archive of Quentin drawing live on BBC programme Jackanory
In the 1970s Blake was an occasional presenter of the BBC children’s story-telling programme Jackanory, when he would illustrate the stories on a canvas as he was telling them. The highest recognition available to creators of children’s books.
Such an amazing video to watch, Sir Quentin was drawing while telling the story. I like his simple style and full of features.
