Whether it is a London park, or outside of  urban setting,  in the countryside, to be surrounded by  lush greenery and towering trees, captivates the heart and mind and soothes the soul.  Pennie Cunliffe-Lister draws inspiration from the ever changing colours of  the seasons, and the play of sunlight filtering through the leaves, falling on the textures of the bark, connecting  with the natural world and   in particular woods, forests and the starkness of the trees especially silver birches against a winter skyline and the sea translating  its essence into art.   Human actions have had a profound impact on the environment. Pennie  reminds us of the fragility of nature and the need to protect our forests for future generations and to acknowledge  the interconnectedness of all living things.
