Buying Original Art, Prints, Cards etc.
Giclée Print
Giclée prints, high quality photographic reproductions with an archival life expectancy of up to 100 years, are available for some of the paintings. They are printed in small limited editions of between 10 and 75 on specialist acid free, fine art paper. Each one is signed, titled and numbered. Prints are gently rolled and posted in robust postal tubes. Mounted prints are available by visiting Maureen's studio.
Greeting Card
Many of the paintings and sketches are available as greeting cards. The cards are blank inside, come with an envelope and are wrapped in cellophane. The cards are handmade with a photographic image on the front of a folding card or printed, this is mentioned in the description.
Book
During the first Lockdown, with galleries closed and her art classes cancelled, Maureen was happy painting, gardening and having time to do those things she could not normally fit in. During the second Lockdown in Autumn 2020, which lasted 27 days, she made a sketch a day and turned it into a book.
When the third Lockdown came on January 2021 it was mid-winter and the nights were long. She again made the decision to do a sketch a day and post it on Instagram and Facebook. She never knew what she would draw at the beginning of the day so drew her inspiration from her now resumed classes online, news headlines and events happening around her. Her second book has 167 sketches.
Notebook
I have recently introduced notebooks to my range and I shall be increasing the designs in due course. The notebooks have a matt soft cover with the front design continuing over the spine. My details and a small image of the cover are printed on the back. Inside are 100 ruled pages (50 double sided sheets). They are ideal as small presents and can be carried easily in a handbag or kept at home to making notes.

This painting I made especially for the exhibition 'Along Your Street' which took place at Byard Art on King's Parade from 31 May to 1 July 2018. The view is one of the most popular tourist stops and I have turned the grass into a magical patchwork of tiny flowers.
The Backs in Cambridge is a stretch of land that runs along the back of the riverside colleges alongside the river Cam. The name 'the Backs' refers to the backs of the colleges. Several famous bridges cross the river including the Mathematical Bridge and the Bridge of Sighs.
Viewed from the Backs, King's College Chapel is stunning. The chapel itself stands slightly higher than the viewer with the huge horse chestnut tree just visible behind it. In front the immaculately manicured lawn reaches down to the river where you can usually see the top parts of people gliding along with a long pole, punting. Closer towards the viewer the ground becomes rougher and this is where the gentle Red Poll cows reside. Then there is a water-filled ditch which prevents viewers trespassing and on it's edges are wild native bushes.
At evensong you can see the King's College choirboys walking to chapel but I have swapped them for more decorative people in the graduation ceremonies.
Although the original painting Has been sold, pints are available
