Welcome to the wild
Where sky meets land
Hello, I'm Lara Frances and this is my world of radiant colours, immersive scapes, windows into the wilderness, and bursts of life.
My art celebrates the vibrant beauty of the natural world. From the graceful flight of egrets to the playful antics of swans, I find inspiration in the movement and energy of animals and nature. My style embraces bold colours and a touch of the naive, capturing the essence of life with a joyful, expressive touch.
Miniature Palm Studies
I’ve put together a small, sunshine-soaked collection of A5 oil-on-canvas-panel pieces called Mini Palm Studies. They’re little palm moments I painted to celebrate summer - relaxed, a bit whimsical, and full of that soft, textured oil paint I love. They’re small enough to tuck into any corner, or to add a cheerful splash to a gallery wall.

The natural world has always captivated me, particularly the creatures that inhabit it. Their resilience, the grace of their movement, and the spectrum of emotions they evoke. Through my art, I hope to share the healing power of nature and inspire others to embrace their passions, especially those facing challenging life experiences.
