We’ve developed quite a fondness for Northumberland over the years, finding ourselves drawn back time and again. One of our regular haunts is Holy Island, where we love to take walks around the island with the kids.
As we approached Lindisfarne Castle, with the silhouette of Bamburgh Castle in the distance across on the mainland, we were once again reminded of the magic of Northumberland. Each visit leaves us with cherished memories spent in this beautiful place.
In this artwork, I’ve hand-sewn some purple embroidery into the foreground, depicting plants found there. I’ve also added some material amongst the wool to create extra texture.
Holy Island is the place to be,
At times it’s totally surrounded by sea.
The causeway timings are so vital,
To be sure of your arrival.
Sitting on the pebbled shore,
We watched the sun set, so pure.
Pinks and purples paint the sky,
As we stack the pebbles high.
Across the water, we can see
Two castles steeped in history.
Happy days with family adventures,
Northumberland, the land of splendour.

What is a giclée print?
Pronounced “zhee-clay”, giclée is the French word meaning “to spray”. Giclée printing is a high-quality fine art printing process using archival pigmented inks to produce excellent detail and rich colours, with prints designed to last for many years.
PLEASE NOTE: FRAME AND MOUNT ARE NOT INCLUDED.
Slight variations in colour may occur between the printed artwork and the image you see on your screen.
Drawing on my Fine Art degree, I create my felt landscapes using wool as a painter would use oils or watercolours. Layers of coloured merino wool fibres are carefully arranged to build the landscape before being transformed into felt using the traditional wet felting technique of hot soapy water, rolling and friction.
During felting, the wool naturally shrinks by around 15–20%, creating a single piece of felt. Once dry, I use needle felting to refine details and add texture before the artwork is professionally scanned for printing.
