Hannah Frank has a poem penned for her in recognition of her services to art

One-hundred-year-old artist Hannah Frank has received a unique lifetime-achievement award for her services to art. She has had a poem penned for her by Glasgow-born poet David Kinloch on behalf of the St Mungos Mirrorball Poets' Group.

The poem is about Ms Frank's favourite drawing, The Mocking Fairy. "It's very nice indeed," she tells People. "I remember when I was young, I used to sleep in the attic. One of the imaginary people in the attic was the mocking fairy. I've got lots of favourite drawings; it's impossible to tell why this particular one is my favourite."

Ms Frank, who turned 100 in August, has recently been exhibiting her work at Glasgow University Chapel. Born in Glasgow, Ms Frank showed an early talent for art and spent much of the 1930s and 1940s drawing. In the 1950s she changed direction after enrolling in sculpture classes at the Glasgow School of Art.

oday, her works is exhibited throughout Westacres, a Newark Care home in Newton Mearns Glasgow, where she lives.
