As promised, here is a selection of illustrations from my ‘Ulysses Illustration Workshop’ with ARTISJUSTAWORD which took place at the Ashmolean’s Museum’s Education Studio on Saturday May 5th, using copies of Ulysses (1922) kindly donated by Oxford University Press…

‘Nestor’ by Greg Sweetnam
‘Proteus’ by Ian Boutle
‘Lotus Eaters’ by Cleo Hanaway
‘Hades’ by Tasneem Udin
‘Aeolus’ by Imran Mirza
‘Ithaca’ by Thomas Harris
‘Ulysses‘ by Keiko Yata
Some of these illustrations include words from their randomly picked quotation in the artwork itself. For others, their inspiration is less obvious.
If you would like to guess which passages inspired each illustration, or would like to read more of Joyce’s modernist masterpiece, have a search through these free online versions of Ulysses (which we hope to add to Great Writers Inspire website at some point soon):
