Hangar Art & Framing, in Fenton Barns, East Lothian is mounting a four-person show, revolving mainly around a botanical theme.

Influenced by traditional herbaria and the Victorian practice of flower pressing, Fi McDougall of Wilderframe, whose work is pictured at top, uses flowers she grows herself and hand-presses using traditional methods.

Working from imagination, Nina Capaldi paints colourful flowers in captivating arrangements as well as creating patterns for textiles inspired by the beauty of nature.

Taking a random approach to her work to allow a picture to develop as part of the process, SoozySu uses foliage, which she presses, marks and paints onto the canvas, mixing colours and selecting textures to create wildflower meadows. 

A freelance watercolour artist and illustrator for clients such as Cath Kidston, Fortnum & Mason and St Paul’s Cathedral, Nicky Jack paints architectural portraits of people’s homes, picking out the detail to create a personal and lasting memory.
