Last year I went to see the Barbican performance of the multi-media tale Truth Is A Cave In The Black Mountains, previously performed at the Sydney Opera House, then made available as a book and CD.

Well it transforming again to be serialised on BBC Radio 4 this week, available to listen, free, around the world during and after broadcast. The first episode airs at 22.45pm GMT, or 17.45 ET or 14.45PT. Abridged by Karen Rose. Read by Bill Paterson.

Not visually though, this is radio after all.

So that's where you come in. Listen to the show. Make your own drawing or painting based on the show and send it in. And be part of the gallery of images…

The only restriction is no photo-based work of collages, but be all self-created, landscape and ideally 1980 pixels by 1080 pixels.Oh and BBC get rights to use it forever….

Send to ships@bbc.co.uk or tweet it to @BBCRadio4 by the 6th December.

I might have a go…

The Truth Is A Cave In The Black Mountain by Neil Gaiman and Eddie Campbell is available here in book form in the US, here in the UK, here in Canada.
