Gail, Roz and Sophy are united in their love of the natural world and the importance of access to land and nature. This is the prime focus of their work, though they represent this in strikingly different ways: Gail with pen and ink, Roz in print and Sophy in paint.
Wildlife in England has declined in abundance by 32 % on average since 1970, and to allow wildlife and their habitats to flourish, the land needs to be protected. All three artists' work focuses on drawing viewers into the beauty of nature, to fall in love and care about wildlife habitats and the importance of this to society and our well-being.
