For the Surgical Decision Unit at Musgrove Park Hospital, Taunton the brief was to depict the local area of Somerset. After exploring places of interest; for example the Somerset Levels, Burrow Mump, Glastonbury, as well as recording elements from formal gardens, I developed a range of co-ordinating artwork. I was particularly inspired by the espalier fruit trees and spectacular perennials that I found in and round kitchen gardens. These were dipicted in compositions on windows and waiting areas.

The quiet room. Gentle scene of reeds. The colours complement the furniture in a thoughtful and gentle way.
