My name is Steph Hicks and I'm an artist based in South Oxfordshire at the foot of the Chiltern Hills. An ideal day is spent foraging in the woods - cooking most of what I find and drawing the rest. I use pen and ink illustrations to highlight the beauty of all the plants, fungi and creatures that can be found on our doorstep and love to share the joys of nature and the great outdoors. I hope that this exhibition will inspire people of all ages to spend time enjoying and protecting our beautiful countryside.

If you would like to take a look at some of my work before visiting the exhibition then follow me on Instagram (@drawntothewilduk) or take a look in my Etsy shop (www.etsy.com/uk/shop/drawntothewilduk).

Looking forward to meeting you!
