HAY-on-Wye's Lizzie Harper is an illustrator who specialises in painting plants and animals for publishers, environmental organisations and private clients.

She is just finishing a two-year project painting wild flowers and grasses for a new guidebook and is looking forward to getting back to painting birds, beetles and butterflies.

Her forthcoming exhibition at Shepherds Ice Cream Parlour in Hay includes a wide range of work in pencil, pen and watercolour. Both framed and unframed work is on sale.

When she's not painting, Lizzie says she spends far too long watching garden birds and walking in the hills. The show continues until May 16. Shepherds Ice Cream parlour is at 9, High Town, Hay-on-Wye.
