Family artists
We're not saying it's in the genes, but somehow the Graham-Yoolls have nurtured or attracted into the family a wonderful array of talented people in the creative arts.
In no particular order, here's a list of some of them, with links to their websites:

Liz is a painter, children's book illustrator and writer. She lives in Aveyron, South West France, with her husband Robert, after having spent many years painting in Tuscany, Italy.

Julie Fleming-Williams
Julie is an artist and gilder, whose paintings come from observations of the everyday to the surreal.
She is the mother of Tom Rooth, who is also featured on this website.

Fred is a Scotsman by birth, and now resides near Washington DC with his son and family. He has written several non-fiction books related to his interests in history, politics and the state of the world.
