Introducing Natasha Newton



I first came across Natasha Newton on Twitter...or perhaps it was on Etsy, I'm not sure but I was struck by her paintings immediately.

She's an artist and illustrator based in Suffolk. She is endlessly inspired by nature - in particular the quiet beauty of the Autumn and Winter landscape - patterns, stories and symbolism, which she incorporates into her paintings and illustrations. Her atmospheric landscapes, forests, and birds have both a fairytale and a slightly surreal dreamlike quality to them. Natasha exhibits widely, and her work is now collected worldwide. In March 2010, the book publishing company Random House are using five of Natasha's designs for a series of books by the author Jorge Bucay.



She painted these three original acrylics especially for us! They are all painted on deep edged canvas.

Her work sits beautifully at Radiance between the Chetwood and the fairy lights. You can find it on the website here.
