I have always been inspired by the seasons. The absence of Winter, the<br />
awakened fresh growth of Spring, high Summer downiness and the<br />
earth-muted palette of Autumn hues, a detritus that reveals the unexpected<br />
beauty. It’s these nuances that inspire me, a chance to capture a moment that<br />
I know will pass before another has its time of temporary prominence. This<br />
work is an emotional response to my relationship with plants, being able to<br />
represent the movement and individuality that makes them unique to me. A<br />
poem by E. E. Cummings has been an inspiration, to capture the beauty of life<br />
and death in the garden. The ‘flower curled’ as it fades is as pleasing to me as<br />
when in full bloom.<br />
My brother and I have been designing gardens for some time, it’s a job that<br />
inspires us greatly but also provides us with a strong sense of appreciation for<br />
the natural landscape. We have designed gardens at the Chelsea Flower Show<br />
and our private work finds us both in the UK and abroad.
