“in the Wild Garden” is the result of a visit to the nature garden at Nymans, Handcross. A slight departure for me to paint flowers rather than making people the central characters in my paintings but I loved the soft flowers and greenery contrasting with the iron supports and more formal hedging.

An oil painting inspired by the colours and excitement of the Venice Carnival. A Gondola ride, masks and a lovely costume. Perhaps a little overwhelming for a first date? Oil on canvas. 45 x 35cm unframed
