Mary, Mary, quite contrary, How does your garden grow? With silver bells and cockle shells, And pretty maids all in a row…
Well, my garden grows with colour, flowers, poetry, photographs, paint, and a little bit of mischief.
“Collect original art from living artists, as dead ones can’t spend your money.’
June is bursting into bloom and I’m delighted to invite you into my world of art, stories, exhibitions, workshops, and summer magic. This month carries the light of the Summer Solstice — a time of growth, abundance, creativity, and long golden evenings. It feels like the perfect moment to gather, together celebrate art, and perhaps even take home something unique and beautiful for your own walls.
