Diana Davis Art

We are delighted to be showcasing the beautiful Botanical Illustrations by Diana Davis Art to The Creative’s Loop. The intricate detail combined with bold colour creates eye-catching pieces. Here we explore how Diana Davis Art formed and the incredible achievements so far. 

Who is Diana Davis Art?

After relocating to Cornwall in 2012, the creative mind behind Diana Davis Art found her new surroundings inspiring. She found that as the seasons changed, the hedgerows and cliff tops became the perfect habitat for a variety of wildflowers. Since moving to Cornwall she has incorporated elements of the Cornish landscape into some of her work. 

‘Botanical Illustration is a fascinating way to combine two of my keen interests, art and gardening.’

Highlights so far   

A Diploma in Botanical Illustration was achieved in 2014 under the Society of Botanical Artists, London. This was followed by a group exhibit with the South West Society of Botanical Artists in 2018. It was here at the RHS Botanical Art Exhibition that the group received a silver award. The exhibit was organised in collaboration with Plantlife and their ‘Forget-Me-Not’ campaign, initiated to raise awareness of words being omitted from the children’s’ dictionary such as blackberry, dandelion and bluebell.   

Diana Davis Art currently has a range of work available to view at The Lane Gallery in Cornwall.

Introducing The Creative’s Loop

Founded by a marketing professional with a degree in textiles and professional writing, The Creative’s Loop is designed to assist artisans with their marketing. For many creatives 2020 has been a challenging year. With retail outlets, galleries and markets unable to operate properly throughout the year, other channels for showcasing products have had to be considered. The Creative’s Loop offers artisans a platform to showcase their work through mostly online channels, including blogs and social media. 

How it works

1 After requesting to join The Creative’s Loop you would set up a standing order to pay the small subscription fee (which is only £1 per month for the first 30 that sign up!) This contributes towards general costs and paid digital and print advertising.

2 You will send 3 images along with a bit of information about them per month to thecreativesloop@gmail.com. These will be organised ready to distribute across our selected platforms. The images could be final products, works in progress or advertising for workshops and events. They could even show something about you. For example, they could capture yourself working on a project or what you are inspired by. Points to consider when taking the images include composition, lighting and the background. 

3 The images will be showcased in a number of places including blogs and across our Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest pages. The world of digital marketing is fast paced. All the latest trends will be monitored and appropriate techniques will be applied.  

Looking to join our creative community?

From textiles to painting and ceramics, we welcome artisans who specialise in any medium. Whether short on time or find digital marketing difficult to navigate, The Creative’s Loop is here to help.
