British Wildlife and country garden Stationery
Welcome
Welcome to my cosy studio; home to cherished animals and flowers to be found up and down the country in British wildlife habitats, garden, countryside and woodland spaces. Here you will find tasty fruits and vegetables from the garden and nuts and berries from along the hedgerow - treats for us as well as the animals, birds and bees!
Take your time to wander over this small patch of illustrated garden and countryside.
It takes time to create something special and each piece, whether a fine art painting, an illustration or a book, has been nurtured with time and care from start to finish; time spent observing the beauty to be found outdoors, learning about it, sketching, drawing, painting, writing and illustrating.
Filled with imagination & inspired by the natural world to help share the delights to be found in nature.

Everything you find here is originally created in the traditional, artistic way with pencils, paintbrushes and a joy for the wonderful characters to be found in the English countryside and garden, just beyond the doorstep.
​
Each design is carefully nurtured in Claire Murthy Studio to create a beautiful piece of art. My first few books in the children's nature book series, about a garden bird, were published in 2022 and I'm currently illustrating a children's book about a honey bee, which will be launched in October 2023. Come along to the National Honey Show to find out more!
