10.30am to 4.30pm. The Whispering Wild is the creative studio of artist Lucy Pendrick, who uses watercolours and needlefelting to bring nature to life. With such a similar approach to Beatrix Potter, when she approached us about exhibiting in the bookshop, we were delighted! Lucy's work will be available on display for visitors to peruse, and when she is in the building you can buy work direct from her. On the days that Lucy isn't present, visitors can still purchase her work by contacting her directly. Her contact details will be available on the day.
