Mother Orchard
Mother Orchard

A late February visit to the gardens & orchards at Cotehele a few years ago was a magical experience.
I was able to explore the bare bones of the place and the day spent there has provided much inspiration.
I took lots of photos of the buildings, apple press and landscape in the orchard and these are providing inspiration for a new series of work,
which will also utilise a series of decorated papers I created during the rest of my stay in the Tamar Valley.
