My entry into the recent Barbican sci-fi competition. I was inspired by Margaret Cavendish who wrote what could be seen as one of the earliest examples of science fiction writing - a short piece called 'The Blazing World' published in 1666. Sadly my illustration wasn't one of the five shortlisted, but I still had lots of fun doing this and enjoyed learning about such a maverick woman who was hundreds of years ahead of her time.
