My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece
Claude Monet

For me, being in the garden is not unlike painting, working with textures, colour, perspective and light, and it is one of my favourite places to be.

This exhibition is a collection of floral sculptures and garden landscapes, some of my own, some from imagination and a few from some of the gardeners I admire.
