About

Decorative Prints, Cards and Homewares for you and your home.

STORY

Hello, my name is Sian Summerhayes, an artist and illustrator based in the Cotswolds, UK. I create decorative paintings inspired by my cottage life here in Gloucestershire. Gouache on paper is my current medium of choice and I love playing with colour and pattern to create pretty landscapes and cosy cottage interior scenes. Depictions of charming animals, beautiful birds, wild flowers, quirky trees and meandering foliage are all key elements to my artistic style. My art has also naturally evolved to a small range of products and homewares.

I am a self-taught painter and can also work digitally where needed. I also enjoy making, sewing, collage, photography, ceramics… the list is endless. I am not necessarily good at all these things at all (!) but I love the process and am basically happiest using my hands to create something beautiful, or to give an object or room new life.

I live in an old cottage with a young family and am inspired to create art to suit my personal home and surroundings. Life in an old cottage brings plenty of opportunity to continually restore while also refresh the feel of a place. My home environment is my complete safe place and I love constantly making tweaks and improvements here. My garden and the surrounding countryside also provide an abundance of inspiration for my imagined pastoral scenes.

VALUES

I believe in bringing colour and beauty into your personal space to make you feel happier. Whether through the art on your walls, the objects you use or the furniture you sit on – I feel the place where you spend most of your time deserves to be homey and beautiful.

All my items are printed by me and/or manufactured in the UK. I am currently a one-woman operation, creating and printing my Art Prints in-house as well as packing and shipping your orders from my studio. Greeting Cards and Homewares are all designed by me and manufactured in the UK. By supporting small business and makers, you receive thoughtful and unique items made with love and care.

I am eco conscious and use bio cellos and recyclable packaging.
