Petals and Pixels

Katie’s artistic focus on contemporary still life, achieved through digital technology, breathes new life into traditional oil painting techniques. Her inspiration from the natural world, particularly the unspoiled landscapes of the Ards Peninsula, infuses her work with a sense of organic beauty.

Transitioning from printmaking to digital illustrations, Katie echoes the aesthetics of historic oil paintings while employing modern tools.

On the other hand, Joanna’s background in horticulture and botanical art lends depth to her compositions. Her techniques, through the exploration of plant life, while employing methods such as dry point etching/printmaking and watercolour, capture the essence of botanical specimens.
