Art Prints — Giclée Wildlife Illustrations
Printed onto beautifully textured, archival-quality paper, these British wildlife prints keep the softness of watercolour — the light on a feather, the tilt of a head. They sit just as comfortably in a living room as they do in a country kitchen, hallway or reading nook.
Each print is:
Reproduced from my original paintings
Limited to 50 of each
Hand finished with gold or iridescent inks
Professionally giclée printed for depth and longevity
Finished, signed and checked by hand
Available framed or unframed, ready for the wall

These personalised farm gifts are ideal for farmers, smallholders and country-loving families, offering thoughtful keepsakes that celebrate rural life. Available as name prints, keepsakes and practical gifts, each piece is carefully made in the UK and designed to be treasured.
Bothy Threads Cross Stitch Kits
These counted cross stitch kits are produced by Bothy Threads, a name long respected for quality and reliability, and are based on my original hand-painted artwork. Each design begins as a watercolour, then is carefully translated into stitch so the warmth and character of the original painting remain.
They make particularly thoughtful gifts for stitchers — complete, well-presented kits that can be enjoyed slowly and returned to again and again. With clear instructions, quality materials and traditional counted cross stitch charts, they are suitable for confident beginners and experienced hands alike.
A comforting project, a satisfying gift, and a keepsake once finished.

Some places and people shape us for life. These bespoke house and family portraits are painted by hand from photographs, capturing not just how a home or family looks, but how it feels.
From first houses and long-lived family homes to wedding gifts, anniversaries and remembrance pieces, each portrait is created slowly in watercolour, with care given to line, light and character. They are thoughtful personalised gifts for families, marking milestones and moments worth holding onto.
Quiet, enduring keepsakes — made to honour the places we belong to and the people we love.
Pet Portraits — Bespoke Miniature Illustrations
Quietly observed and carefully made, these bespoke pet portraits are small works of original art, painted by hand from your chosen photograph. Each piece captures the character and presence of a much-loved companion, rendered in fine watercolour and ink with a traditional hand.
Designed as a bespoke gift in miniature, every portrait is affordable, original, and ready-framed, making it a thoughtful keepsake for animal lovers or a lasting tribute to a cherished pet.
A modest scale, but a heartfelt remembrance — made to be lived with and treasured over time.

What our customers say:
Cannot praise this highly enough! The mat is perfect for my daughter in law's birthday. So good to be able to choose specific breeds of animals and personalise everything. Kate even changed the lambs from white to black for me. Would highly recommend this seller - great correspondence and very quick delivery. Thank you so much!
