About the Author

Born in France, Claire Rollet has lived in the UK most of her life. London is her home now, and she loves cycling around the city taking in its various cultures and landmarks. She works from a studio at the bottom of her garden. In terms of her process, first of all, Claire works out a composition and some ideas for the image using quick sketches to show to the client. She then creates a line drawing in Indian ink, then works on the colour digitally.

Jane Moseley and Jackie Strachan are greenfingered growers through and through. Jackie's large country garden is packed full of clever and beautiful touches, and Jane is an expert on urban windowboxes and balconies.
