Colour archive footage with the voice of the artist Brenda Chamberlain reading one of her poems about the island's fishermen, and footage of her at home painting and sketching. The clip also includes archive footage of a boat arriving and departing from Bardsey Island. Current interview with Jill Piercy in Aberystwyth National Library discussing the artist's arrival on the island, her very frugal life and her achievement in making her living solely from her art - a feat that was made more difficult by the fact that she was a woman at that time in the late 1940s. The clip includes examples of the artist's paintings and also of her drawings, which show her characteristic use of elongated faces and almond-shaped eyes.
