Daphne Lanham

Although I have not been fortunate enough to be able to study at an art college, I have been painting for many years and have been on various courses and workshops during that time. I work mainly in acrylics, oils and pastels. I have exhibited with several local art societies in the Hampshire and Berkshire area and am very much involved in the local arts scene, including taking part in the Hampshire Open Studios event.

My love of cats has inspired me to write humorous verses about the antics of my and my friends' cats, which have been published in a book, “Cats and Doggerel”, illustrated with some of my paintings.
