An Artist's Garden

Georgie Richardson’s collection of Flower Portraits and Pollinating Moths stir the imagination and remind us of the sunny seasons to come.

There is a theatricality to this collection. As though each one is a stage set, with their Bloomsbury-style swags, borders and dark backdrops. Like a player in a play, each specimen is waiting to have its turn in the spotlight - as the seasons change and the sun moves around to shine on that specific plant, or signify to a moth that it’s time to metamorphose from its cocoon, spreading its glorious wings in these silk-like gouache and ink paintings.

At this special time of year, when we are full of anticipation for all the seasons to come, Georgie has captured this delight. The energy bursting forth from the bare earth into these fireworks of floral displays and outstretched wings is palpable.

A graduate of Fine Art Painting at Winchester School Of Art, Georgie Richardson doesn't have to go far to find inspiration. In her garden that surrounds her home and studio in the foothills of the Black Mountains in Herefordshire, the artist nurtures a careful balance between wildness and cultivation.
