My Life Through Art - Volume One is an intimate and visually rich autobiography by British artist Alice Lenkiewicz, exploring the beginnings of her artistic journey alongside reflections on her later creative practice. Covering her early years in Plymouth, Brighton, Lewes, and London, the book traces her experiences modelling for her father, Robert Lenkiewicz, and developing her own artistic voice through public art, imaginative works, landscapes, socially engaged projects and a mix of past and contemporary projects created in her home city of Liverpool. Blending memoir, art history, and visual storytelling, Alice situates her early and later artworks in a reflective dialogue, showing how past experiences inform her present creative practice. Illustrated with over 240 black-and-white images - paintings, photographs, and archival material - this volume offers a unique insight into an artist whose past and present converge in a dynamic, reflective, and socially conscious creative journey. A compelling read for those interested in autobiography, early artistic development, and contemporary British art, and the life and work of the Lenkiewicz family, My Life Through Art - Volume One captures the formative experiences that laid the foundation for a lifetime of creativity and personal growth.
