Adrian Gray is the pioneer of stonebalancing art. Adrian works with stone, exploring the natural world and its inherent yet seemingly magical states of balance. He creates sculptures using weathered stone, ranging in size from small tactile rocks to vast granite boulders shaped by glaciers. The stones are balanced by hand or, for the monumental sculptures, using a crane. The sculptures are fixed in their balanced position for safety and longevity, but still retain the outward appearance of being in transitory equilibrium, evoking a contradictory sense of solidity and impermanence and an attendant sense of wonder. They make dramatic, epic statements in homes, gardens and commercial spaces.

Amanda Ross makes botanical art with a twist. Her intensely detailed and gently vibrant pieces are printed from the actual plants. A hopeless gardener, she has amassed a vast collection of preserved plants which act as raw materials as well as mementos and relics of places. With these, she conveys the essence or spirit of places and gardens, using the very things that made them. Her pieces capture a moment or season within the ever-changing natural environment – places and gardens that grow, change, die and reappear. A bespoke service allows you to 'Print Your Garden’.
