"Children of the Hours is a distillation of her careful botanical observation, her ability to realise texture through line and water colour, to pick an insignificant little flower and transform it into a work of beauty to delight the botanist and art lover alike. These little masterpieces are here combined with a selection of equally finely observed and deeply felt poems, in which gentle wisdom is mixed with refreshing insights and flashes of vivid lyricism. Together these are indeed the 'children of her hours', the offspring of a dedicated artists' lifelong devotion to her art.".
