The Inspiration:
12 tiny escapes from the busy world - each one inspired by a different idea of somewhere you'd want to disappear to for a little while.
There’s something about being at the foot of a mountain that makes you realise just how small you are.
This little cottage sits at the base of the mountains, surrounded by open landscape with enormous peaks rising up behind it.
I imagine stepping outside in the morning, looking up at the mountains, and having a whole day ahead of you to explore.
Walking around following the moutain paths and seeing where they lead.
Then coming back here as the light starts to fade to a cosy little cottage, tucked away at their roots.
I wanted this one to capture that feeling of being surrounded by something so vast and beautiful that everything else suddenly feels a little less important.
That’s the feeling I wanted to capture in this piece.

12 Quiet Places
Last year, I painted a series of little cottages that sold out, and collectors told me how much they loved having these tiny, slightly magical places to escape to.
So I brought them back for 12 Quiet Places — a series of 12 original miniature landscapes, each imagining a little cottage somewhere peaceful, from wild coastlines and hidden coves to endless fields, woodland and mountains.
I created them as tiny reminders to slow down, step away from the noise and disappear somewhere else for a few quiet moments.

Hello, I'm Felicity
I've always believed our homes should make us feel the way nature does - calm, grounded and able to breathe.
That's why I'm continually drawn back to the Welsh coastline. Every walk reminds me how powerful a landscape can be, not because of how it looks, but because of how it makes us feel. Through my paintings, I hope to bring a little of that feeling into the homes of the people who live with them.
