Early Summer 2025


Early Summer
Living and working in the Shropshire countryside often feels far removed from world affairs, and when you visit my website here, I would like to feel that you too can enjoy the peace and quiet.
My studio is at the end of this path, where I am working towards the mini-exhibition at Wildegoose Nursery in September, but I have also been out and about, painting and drawing in Cantlop and Herefordshire.
I have just added five new landscapes, mainly oil sketches/paintings, so please have a browse and hopefully you will find something you like!
A big thank you to all of you wonderful customers, I hope you will enjoy following my progress and hopefully come to the exhibition at Wildegoose Nursery in early September.
Thank you, with love, Mary x

The Garden
When we moved into the Shippen, the garden was a grassed area bordered by a traditional mixed hedge. It was a blank canvas. Wildegoose Nursery planned and planted a wonderful mix of perennials and grasses that have matured into a haven for birds and insects.
Seasonal sketches of the garden will be for sale in the Garden Collection and Available Work.

Cantlop
Cantlop is the geographic centre of Shropshire. The name was first recorded in the Domesday Book as Cantelop and could have been named by Norman knights, from chante lou (sing wolf). These days it is a slightly untidy settlement of houses, converted barns and farms, and is pleasantly unremarkable, with the exception of the historic Cantlop Pump.
