Houses & Gardens - fine art drawings by Katherine Tyrrell

I'm fascinated by the different way the garden has been treated and painted over time by different artists.  I have drawn and painted houses and gardens in a number of different countries.  The top gallery displays drawings of houses and gardens in England, France, Spain, Greece and Bali. I also sketch gardens a lot e.g. A Cheshire Garden through the seasons (see bottom gallery)
