Inspired by her passion for flowers and nature, Tanya uses pressed flowers and foliage to create original artworks and fine art Giclée prints. Whenever possible she sources local sustainably grown flowers and foliage which she presses by hand using her own homemade presses. Every design is unique in its composition, placement and colour and is meticulously handcrafted to show off the intricate and vivid details of the flowers and their structure. Plant species of various forms, shapes and textures are used to instil a sense of depth, movement and interest, many of which are hand- picked from Tanya’s own cut flower beds in North Somerset. Each piece celebrates the beauty of nature and its abundant gifts.

Bridget is a professional artist and has a passion for creating art in many forms. Living in Somerset and Cornwall enables her to immerse herself in nature and natural surroundings. She has developed a deep awareness of, and intense relationship with these places and is drawn to secret and secluded corners, such as meadows, woodlands and hedgerows. Her seascapes and coastal paintings are full of colour with layers of paint to create the depth of the Cornish seas and the drama of the moving sky’s. She tries to produce work that captures the beauty of nature and that reminds us of the things often taken for granted in our increasingly busy lives. From her beautiful studio situated in her fabulous home, she will be exhibiting her latest artwork. You will find original paintings, a large collection of fine art prints, greeting cards, hand painted vases, mugs, jewellery and much more. With many price variants this makes Bridget’s artwork affordable so there is something for everyone.
