Nature informing Art, a panel discussion with Isabel and Julian Bannerman, Endellion Lycett Green and Clare Foster
Join celebrated garden designers Isabel and Julian Bannerman, artist Endellion Lycett Green and Clare Foster, Garden Editor at House & Garden for an evocative, humorous and highly personal conversation on all things nature and art.
Isabel and Julian Bannerman have been described as ‘mavericks in the grand manner, touched by genius’ and ‘the Bonnie and Clyde of garden design’ - they are also a huge source of inspiration to artist Endellion Lycett Green. Julian is an astute art critic, and will share his thoughts on Endellion’s paintings, and why he loves them.
The conversation will take place in the Tithe Barn at Thyme - which is also hosting Endellion’s first solo show in 10 years. Endellion spent much time last summer painting in the water meadows on the estate. In this exhibition, she captures the living tapestry of this special place, which has been a conservation project run by Caryn Hibbert, Founder and Creative Director of Thyme, for the past 20 years.
Following the talk, the Bannermans will be signing copies of their highly acclaimed books: Landscape of Dreams - which celebrates the imaginative and practical process of designing, making and planting gardens, and Isabel’s book, Husbandry: Making Gardens with Mr B, which reflects on the gardens they have created together at the various houses in which they have lived.

Isabel and Julian Bannerman
Isabel and Julian Bannerman have been designing gardens and garden buildings together since 1983. They have won numerous awards, including an RHS Chelsea Flower Show Gold Medal.
Their approach to design, while rooted in history and the classical tradition, is fresh, eclectic and surprising. Designers to the highest in the land, they have made gardens for the Prince of Wales at Highgrove, Lord Rothschild at Waddesdon Manor, the Duke and Duchess of Norfolk at Arundel Castle in Sussex, John Paul Getty II at Wormsley in Buckinghamshire, the great walled garden at Houghton, home of the Marquess of Cholmondeley, and they designed the British 9/11 Memorial Garden in New York.
‘Their work of grand architectural gestures, of mock ruins and oaken temples has made them famous. But it is the houses and gardens they have made for themselves that… eclipse any of these aristocratic delights’ (Mary Keen, Daily Telegraph).
Endellion Lycett Green
Endellion Lycett Green’s career in painting and drawing spans over 25 years. She has shown at P Lefevre Fine Art, Hazlitt Holland-Hibbert, Browse & Darby London and is represented by Laura Lopes Gallery.

Clare Foster
