Discover Aetheria Gallery and Studio

Marie-Therese is a Malvern-based artist working primarily in batik, the traditional Indonesian art of layering melted wax and water-based dyes on cotton to create intricate, delicate designs. 

With a background in graphic design and a degree in Multi-Disciplinary Design from North Staffordshire Polytechnic, she brings a strong design foundation to my work. Inspired by British wildlife—especially birds, butterflies, wildflowers, and insects, she aims to capture the detail and beauty of the natural world.

Marie-Therese comes from a family of gardeners, birdwatchers, and walkers, and spent my childhood exploring orchards and the Cotswold hills. Today, I still walk regularly in the Malvern Hills AONB, constantly observing and sketching the world around me.
Marie-Therese sells original artworks, prints and cards at Aetheria. She also comes in for the odd demonstration day.
