About Fiona Gray Designs

I have been based at 36 lime Street Studios for over 20 years & my work is currently split into two main areas – creating plaster cast plaques with plants & flowers, made by pressing real plants into clay, removing them & pouring plaster over to create a raised impression, the process picks up an incredible amount of detail. Flowers fade so quickly & this is like capturing a moment in time to be preserved forever. Prices from £20 – £90
I also have a range of botanical prints featuring plants, flowers, trees & landscapes that are created using a combination of photography, painting & digital manipulation. This enables me to building up multiple layers of colour, texture & detail. The images often feature striking silhouettes – when the distraction of colour is removed, it reveals an almost hidden beauty. Prices £18 – £200
‘Preserve Your Wedding Bouquet or Favourite Flowers’ is my latest venture. I will transform a photo of your flowers into a beautiful, detailed ink & watercolour illustration that you can treasure forever. Prices £80 – £100

Autumn at Sycamore Gap - Fine Art Print

2020 - I first photographed the infamous tree in the summer, then suddenly decided that I would capture it in Autumn & Winter as well. So I returned to Sycamore Gap at the end of October & just caught the tree with some leaves still on. I plan to go back in December to catch it in its winter state. The images will form a set of 3 prints showing the tree throughout the seasons. It nestles beautifully in the dip of Hadrian's Wall. I have created the landscape with multiple layers of texture, colour & a pallet of rich, deep hues to bring the image to life. ​The print is available in 3 different colourways. ​Colours Blue - Blues, Green & Purple Rust - Earthy tones of Red, Orange, Rust & Browns Green - Greens, Yellows & Brown Print small 16 x 42 cm large 21 x 52 cm Framed print in Black wood effect frame - Small 31 x 56.5cm Large 30 x 60cm Delivery Prints sent in sturdy cardboard tube.

Allium No.4 Plaster Cast Plaque

Beautiful 3D plaster cast wall plaque made using a real Allium seed head. I had to ask a fellow gardener, Matt, if he had any Allium seed heads as I didn't have the larger ones, luckily he did. I will definitely be growing my own for next year & already have the bulbs, just got to keep the slugs & snails off them. This would be a great gift for anyone who loves plants, flowers, gardening & nature. The plaque is signed on the back & has 2 keyhole brackets for hanging it securely on a wall. It looks equally good displayed on a shelf. Alliums are one of my favourite plants to cast, they are so sculptural & the casts have so much detail. Dimensions: 20 x 20 x 1.5 cm Delivery Free UK mainland p&p Please contact me for international shipping costs You will need to sign for this item when delivered.
