Finding solace in the landscape
The Winding Light
Just a few copies still available with free postage – my new book of art and writing from the Welsh border, full of colour and love for this semi-wild borders landscape.
Alongside a collection of my landscape art, I’ve shared the secrets of my unique use of materials with rich historical and topographical contexts to create a deep connection between place and creativity.
Join me at Skirrid Gallery – drop-in or stay longer in our cosy holiday let
Did you know I run a gallery from my home too?
Just let me know when you’d like to drop by. I can show you the paintings, my studio and the amazing views here. Happy to talk about commissions if you want something tailored especially to you.
And I offer creative breaks in our converted annex – a fully equipped kitchen and shower room downstairs, stylish bedroom above with seating indoors and out.
You might like to arrange a printmaking or landscape painting course while you stay. All levels of experience welcome and supported.
What my buyers say…
“Absolutely loved everything. Uplifting…”
Carrie Ebdon, Open Studios customer
“Thank you so much for the kind note and the additional information about the inspiration for the image. It's just stunning in person. My wife was beside herself.”
Sculptor Kory Wollens, USA, saw my work online and gifted a print to his wife
“It’s a pleasure to live alongside ‘Beyond the Bracken’; a painting which is gradually revealing hidden depths. As light levels change and move across the surface, we see subtle changes in texture, colour and form. Magical!”
Heather Cooper bought her original painting during my open studios and I have since tutored Heather and her local art group
“Our house is full of Helen’s work and we’ll be back again!”

“I received your email as I was putting together my proposals for my final year project and my thesis. Your words were so helpful and supportive. I was totally playing it safe and feeling quite inadequate. After reading your email I rewrote both and there ensued a series of serendipitous events...”
Hello!
A landscape artist from Wales, I escaped the corporate world because I had an itch… first to learn printmaking, then painting. Now I fuse the two in a unique studio process.
From my first crude linocut I was hooked, and I haven’t really stopped since. When I wake up each day to this colourful, messy artist’s life, I have to pinch myself.
