I have drawn plants and botanicals most of my life but have also loved collecting anything that is beautiful in form, texture or colour. Tiny ammonites, structural flowers, shells, ferns all have an obvious glorious beauty but so do parts of machinery and neglected pieces of furniture. I believe well made things should have another chance even if it means they are repurposed; most of the items I have for sale have had a life and I hope will carry on being treasured.
The black pen drawings are all by me and have been exhibited with the UK’s Drawing Society, the Kent Painters Group and the Pilgrims Way artists. You are very welcome to come to my studio to visit and have a closer look, invariably these pictures look so much better in the flesh! I am very happy to take botanical commissions.
All items on the website are arranged within my studio and if I’m in the house, then the studio is open.
Please call, email or Instagram DM if you would like to come, see something in ‘real life’. I can always source something for you during my forays if you like.
I’m currently investigating printing on to fabric, hoping to put these contemporary designs on to vintage linen.
My family is based in a traditional Oasthouse, near Goudhurst in Kent, which we are currently renovating ourselves.
We welcome visitors even if all you’d like to do is browse.
