Hi, I’m
Gill Drew

Nature’s wonder and wildness inspire me, not just in what I see, but in how it makes me feel. In my paintings, I often include figures and a sense of place, drawing you into the scene.

I love layering acrylics, colours, and textures to build depth and energy, revealing little details that encourage you to look closer. At the heart of it all, I'm aiming to convey a spiritual and emotional connection in my artwork.
