About Antonia

Having always enjoyed painting, particularly flowers, I joined an art group the day that my youngest child started school. A few years later I had four pictures accepted for the Botanical Artists Exhibition in Westminster and afterwards exhibited regularly there.
2000
I started making a painted record of all the flowers, birds mammals, insects etc. found in the area of the South Downs
2001
I became a member of the Society of Floral Painters (SFP)  and regularly exhibit at their exhibitions as well as being a member of the Association of Sussex Artists. I painted the Laura Ashley Calendar which was on sale worldwide and have had various commissions to paint flowers, animals and country scenes.

The South Downs A Painted Year was born.
I have worked for the local Adult Education teaching flower paintings for seven years and currently run a small group in my studio at home.
