Silvie plans to develop a world art Repertoire drawn from past and future travels, as an expression of her interest in the vitality of nature, and the beauty of the natural environment.
Silvie paints in the classic mediums of watercolour and oil, using only the best materials including handmade watercolour papers and oil canvases. All paints are of the highest quality art pigments to ensure longevity of colour, tone and hues
