My portrait of Jean Cooke is part of a series that I'm developing about women artists (and often muses) who were somewhat overshadowed by there male partners. I did this lino cut after seeing a self portrait by Jean Cooke. She was married to the kitchen sink artist John Bratby. History has remebered Bratby where as Cooke is less well known.
