Collection: Marie Louise Wrightson

Have you ever found yourself daydreaming about somewhere you'd love to go, something you'd love to do, or a world you'd quite happily disappear into for an afternoon?

That's rather what we love about the paintings of Marie Louise Wrightson.

Her work takes us into those wonderful corners of our imagination where the familiar meets the unexpected. There might be a little fantasy, a touch of nostalgia or something that makes you smile, but there's always enough of the real world to make you feel right at home.

Marie has a lovely way of finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. Her paintings are full of character, intriguing details and gentle humour, inviting you to linger a while and let your imagination do the rest. And sometimes the simplest pleasures are the best inspiration of all. After all, who doesn't love a good afternoon tea and a slice of cake?

There's something very personal about the way we respond to her work. One person might see a favourite memory, another a place they'd love to visit, while someone else simply falls in love with the colours, characters or atmosphere. That's the beauty of it. You don't need to know what inspired a painting to find something in it that speaks to you.

We've been working with Marie since 2015, and over those years we've enjoyed sharing her paintings through numerous exhibitions and shows, introducing her work to collectors old and new.

Her paintings have found homes throughout the UK and even crossed the Atlantic to collectors in the United States. It's lovely to think of all those little pieces of Marie's imagination being enjoyed in homes so far apart.

Today, we're delighted to offer a collection of Marie Louise Wrightson original paintings and limited edition prints, each bringing its own personality, charm and possibilities into the home.

Whether you've followed Marie's work for years or have only just discovered her, we hope you'll enjoy taking your time to explore the collection. Perhaps you'll find somewhere you'd love to escape to, something that brings back a happy memory, or simply a painting that makes you smile every time you pass it.

And if you'd like to know more about Marie or any of her work, we're always happy to chat.

Because sometimes a little daydreaming is exactly what a room needs.
