Autorenporträt

Philippa Stockley has painted since the age of four, doing her first set designs at eleven. As an adult she has painted widely professionally, from shop fronts to murals and wall finishes, a trompe l'oeil carpet on a concrete floor in a hairdresser's, and book jacket designs. She exhibits portraits and still lifes and (of course) does all the painting in her Georgian home. She also designs and sews things for the house - from curtains to cushions - as well as producing home-made jam, fragrant beeswax polish and lemon vodka, for home use or as gifts. Basic carpentry includes making anything from little shelves to simple picture frames. Philippa is author of numerous books including Restoration Stories (Pimpernel Press, 2019) in which she tells the story of her Georgian house in London.
