Eirian Short
Y Brain / Crows
Ganwyd Eirian Short yn Abergwaun yn 1924. Astudiodd gerflunio a brodwaith yng Ngholeg Goldsmiths, Llundain. Rhwng 1953 a 1985 bu'n ddarlithydd mewn nifer o golegau celf yn Llundain tra ar yr un pryd yn datblygu ei gwaith ei hun gan arddangos yn helaeth.
Yn ogystal a'i lluniau a'i gweithiau artistig niferus bu Eirian yn gynhyrchiol iawn hefyd fel awdur. Ymhlith ei chyhoeddiadau mae 'Embroidery & Fabric Collage', 'Introducing Macrame', 'Introducing Quilting', 'Quilting, technique, design and application' a 'Readers Digest Guide to Needlework'.
Cynhaliodd arddangosfeydd niferus, llawer ohonynt gydag un arall o'r casgliad hwn o artistiaid, ei gwr Denys. Ers rhai blynyddoedd bellach mae'r ddau yn byw yn Dinas ac yn gweithio'n brysur iawn ar eu lluniau a'u cerfluniau.
Eirian, ynghyd a Rozanne Hawksley ac Audrey Walker, a fu'n gyfrifol am gydlynu brodwaith campus Glaniad y Ffrancod yn Abergwaun.
