Pattern and Leaf
Based in Skipton, North Yorkshire. She’s always been inspired by nature, and have been lucky enough to work in ecology and conservation for the whole of my career. She’s an experienced botanist and love the colours, patterns and textures of nature.
Reem
Currently living in the English countryside after a lifetime in the Middle East, Reem is on a journey of re-discovering my love for drawing and telling stories. They use Arabic as a catalyst to create art that people can connect with.
