My sample collection has officially begun 😍

A wonderful couple of hours spent at Stoneworld Oxfordshire today learning more about how to specify natural stones. It is always a pleasure to talk to people who know their trade and products inside out.

Straight after Hampton Court I went to a day course about woodland conservation. The knowledge and passion going into this work is admirable and most of the time invisible. It is definitely something to explore further.

It was a rainy, chilly day, but I didn't mind being soaked at all. The fresh air, bird songs, butterflies, lovely company and most of all the contagious enthusiasm of our tutor made it worthwhile.

Keep growing,
Andrea

The National Garden Scheme offers great opportunities to visit private gardens and help a wonderful charity at the same time.

It was lovely and inspiring to see a fellow garden designer's beautiful space. Good weather, nice cup of tea, yummy cake and a great chat.

It was a pleasure!

Studying is always more cheerful with some fresh flowers from the garden. Hopefully the divine smell of the carnation (Dianthus 'Memories' will do the trick 🤞🏻

When you start rendering with colour pencils and realize that the work takes about five times as long as it would have been with pens...

But at least the base colours are down now. The next step is highlighting the forms, shapes and adding shadows.
