Dais Scott-Bennett is a Cumbrian-based illustrator focusing on the natural world and native wildlife. Her passion for biodiversity and wildlife inspired her to create art as a tool for understanding the natural world. She aims to capture the range and beauty of British birds and is currently working on a project to draw all 500. Heron in Reeds is an original dip-pen and watercolour drawing with 24 carat gold background added sheet by sheet, created specifically for the Horatio’s Garden auction. It reflects on the stillness of the outside landscape, the healing powers of nature and the heron, a subject that Scott-Bennett finds herself always returning to draw.
