Description
Coastal scene by artist Marie Mills. Made in the UK, printed on heavyweight canvas, stretched and float-framed in a contemporary wood-effect grained white moulding, ready to hang on your wall. Marie Mills is an inventive artist who consistently pushes the boundaries of her technique, producing paintings that sing with her passion for life and the natural world. Her technical skill as a painter combines with an in-depth knowledge of plants gained from her mother, a keen botanist and gardener. While she began her working life as a nurse, a move to Cornwall in 2000 gave Marie the opportunity to begin painting full time. On her technique, Marie says: "I take great delight in starting a new painting, brushing in the skies. This is the only time I use a brush. I then use pallet knives and my fingers to create the hedgerow. This is all done rapidly so as not to lose the spontaneity and in order to capture the beautiful chaos of our landscape." Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
