Celia Lewis
The inspiration for my artwork comes from the natural world around me. I love to produce expressive depictions of birds, insects and flora enriched by the interplay of pattern and design. My mixed media pieces combine my love for watercolour with linocut and I enjoy the physical carving of the designs and the anticipation of success or disaster when the first print comes off the press. Apart from achieving a Diploma in botanical art I have also written and illustrated six books published by Bloomsbury and my artwork appears on tapestries, jigsaws and playing cards.
