Imogen
Ashwin (MA
Fine Art,
2002) is an artist, with wide-ranging experience both as
practitioner and teacher. She also has a long-standing interest in
prehistory, folklore and the natural world.
Trevor
Ashwin
(BA Hons
Archaeology & History, 1984) is an editor, illustrator, graphic
designer and typesetter whose
principal concerns are archaeology, history and development studies.
After many years working as a field and research archaeologist,
principally for local government organisations, he has freelanced in
publishing, graphic design and archaeology since 2002.
Imogen and Trevor have established World Tree as an 'umbrella'
organisation, within which they can pursue their interests and
ambitions in the fields of publishing, education and the creative arts.
When they met
early in 2005, it was clear that they shared many creative and
professional interests, concerns and ambitions. They have chosen to
work in partnership, rather than as individual freelancers, not
only to offer each other practical support and companionship, but also
to provide a more comprehensive and interesting service to
clients and business partners.
World Tree draws upon Imogen and Trevor's shared expertise,
training and enthusiasm to offer services in three key areas.
- Editing and design:
editing,
typesetting, illustration and image manipulation for authors,
publishers and printers.
- Fine art practice: freelance
art tuition, both in schools/colleges and in adult education;
arts commissions.
- History and
archaeology: teaching,
lecturing and outreach
activities; publications and post-excavation consultancy; research and
writing commissions.
