My images are either drawn, painted, coloured, using crayon, pastel or biro, or created with pressed flowers. Many images are used for cards, though I also make pictures using pressed flowers, grasses, stems and seed pods, all of which are collected, pressed and stored by me. Although some do not remain the vibrant colour as in their natural habitat, they are still interesting in their texture and tone.
The pictures, constructed by me on material, are then sealed and backed by my husband Philip.
Each image has an individuality of it’s own.
