Exhibition information

 

Francesca’s art practice is wide and varied, the current core is en plein air landscape painting, but she also experiments with pigment, plaster, clay, wax and ancient techniques such as egg tempera and encaustic. 

She travels and paints as much as possible, but when in Oxford, works from her garden studio, and opens for Oxfordshire Artweeks every May. 

Her extended family is extensive and includes painters, writers, animators, designers and ceramicists, all mutually supportive and collaborative!!
