My relationship to my work has changed, and as I have shed a skin, I need to let go of old Helen Hallows, and embrace the new.
​
I am re-orienting my life and my creativity has been trying to keep up but inside I have known I need to set down old ways that served me well and journey onwards.
Part of this re-alignment is releasing work that I have stored from this older version of myself and closing a cycle to enable new work to be born!
​
In preparation for the energy of spring rebirth, I will be having a ‘Studio Release’ sale of work starting on Tuesday 17th February at noon. This coincides with the lunar new year for 2026.
​
These works belong to an earlier chapter and are ready to find new homes. I hope you can find the time to help me move through this transition and offer a space for my art.
​
You can find the artwork here from 12.00 on Tuesday 17th February.
​​
My original artworks are created in ink, acrylic, collage and stitch; they are made of slow layers that evoke a sense of place, a feeling, a fleeting moment under wide skies. I work with all my senses, gathering not just what I see in nature, but what I feel. I collect colour, shape, pattern, texture. Sketching outdoors, often in black and white, I distill the landscape to its essence.
​
Back in the studio, I translate those impressions onto paper, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that carry the quiet pulse of the wild. Each original holds the energy of that moment and the soulful rhythm of my creative process. It is a deeply human response to what it means to be alive.
​
I hope you find a piece that speaks to you. Not all my work is listed online so if something has caught your eye at an exhibition, or you'd like to commission a piece, please do get in touch.
It’s never easy to let an original go, but it means the world to know my art finds homes that value creativity and spirit. Your support helps me live this life, nourish my family, and keep walking The Wild Path.
