Willow Island On Falmer Pond Sussex

I was born in Brighton in the South of England and, as a child, my parents would take us to visit this little pond. My siblings and I loved it! We took food for the ducks and a picnic for ourselves and it was a lovely day.

As an adult I have been back to the pond several times, this time taking my parents in my car. We sat and enjoyed an ice cream, watching the ducks, herons and seagulls squabbling over food. On the green area near the pond I have seen families with young children sitting having a picnic just as we did.

This picturesque little island on Falmer Pond in Sussex, England, has several beautiful weeping willows that provide shade and a nesting area for the ducks and other wildfowl that inhabit the pond. In the image you can see the reflections of the willows in the water. Willow Island on Falmer Pond provides a little oasis of tranquility for all who visit.

Born in the South of England I now live half way up a mountain in Umbria, Italy. I work from my art studio looking out over fabulous views of the Italian countryside. I am so happy to share my artwork with you.

An artist and blogger, I specialize in photo art and acrylic painting. For my photo art, I start with my own photographs and work on them digitally to capture the feeling I want to convey with the final image. For my abstract work, I literally 'go with the flow' and follow where my heart wants to take me as I work.

I create art to make your heart smile, capturing the spirit of place in towns and villages, or creating art to enhance the energy of your home or workplace. Take your time to look through my portfolio, I hope you enjoy it.
