Spring sunshine continues...
What an amazing start to Spring!
I have been sketching, drawing and painting in and around Cantlop over the Winter, hence a snow painting is included in my Spring 2025 online gallery, launching on Monday 8th April. Today!
I have also been visiting Wildegoose during the Winter, in preparation for the exhibition in September. The gardeners have been working hard and the nursery is now open Thursday to Saturday.
There are a couple of spaces left on the last Spring, Sketch with Mary Day on Wednesday 9th April, if you would like to join us, please book here on the Workshop page.
As always, a big thank you to all of you wonderful customers, I hope you will enjoy following my progress and hopefully come to the exhibitions at Wildegoose Nursery in early September.
Thank you, with love, Mary x

The Garden
When we moved into the Shippen, the garden was a grassed area bordered by a traditional mixed hedge. It was a blank canvas. Wildegoose Nursery planned and planted a wonderful mix of perennials and grasses that have matured into a haven for birds and insects.
Seasonal sketches of the garden will be for sale in the Garden Collection and Available Work.
Cantlop
Cantlop is the geographic centre of Shropshire. The name was first recorded in the Domesday Book as Cantelop and could have been named by Norman knights, from chante lou (sing wolf). These days it is a slightly untidy settlement of houses, converted barns and farms, and is pleasantly unremarkable, with the exception of the historic Cantlop Pump.
