All these drawings were exhibited at the Spencer House Gallery in Tetbury.

The three Garden drawings (2022) above show the front and back gardens of the house where I lived as a small child, as I recollect it on a typical Sunday afternoon in summer. These drawings are 55 x 55 cm, in pen and ink on watercolour paper.

The two Garden drawings (2023) below show an overhead view of the garden of an aunt's house, where I lived when I was eight or nine. These drawings are 50 x 50 cm, in pen and ink on watercolour paper, and are drawn so that they can sit side by side.
