About the Author
Jackie Strachan is a keen and experienced gardener, in both town and country. She currently enjoys growing fruit and vegetables along with flowers and shrubs in her seaside garden.
Jane Moseley has a passion for pots and potatoes and for making the most of a small outdoor town space complete with steps and restricted sunlight. Let them plant the seed of a gardening passion and you'll be reaping the visual and edible rewards within weeks.
Born in France, Claire Rollet has lived in the UK most of her life. London is her home now, and she loves cycling around the city taking in its various cultures and landmarks. She works from a studio at the bottom of her garden. In terms of her process, first of all, Claire works out a composition and some ideas for the image using quick sketches to show to the client. She then creates a line drawing in Indian ink, then works on the colour digitally.
