Creating The Illustrations - Blondie The Sex Worker
Blondie wasn’t just a tenant, she was also a sex worker. She was nice and friendly to me and the only person in the house with a fridge. She regularly gave me cold drinks, and I often wondered if she also gave them to her clients. My mother also let rooms out by the night to other sex workers. The boarding house was leased from the Church Commissioners, who were agents for the Church of England. My mother lived in constant fear that the Commissioners or the police would find out she was running a brothel, which they eventually did.
All the illustrations were created on an Apple iPad.
