The Veiled Collection - Of Light and Layers Studios.

There is a quiet moment, often missed, when light slips through fabric, when shadows stretch softly across a surface, when nature offers it's stillest forms to be seen, not in clarity, but in subtlety.

Veiled is a collection created with this fleeting moment in mind.

Each piece in the Veiled Collection was created through a collaborative process of multi-exposure photography, combining:

Claire’s original paintings (some complete, others still evolving).

Petra’s layered photographs of wild plant forms, shadow, and veiled fabric.

The ever-changing mood of natural light.

The result is a collection shaped by memory, emotion, and nature’s quiet presence held in gentle layers of light and texture.

Do you have a favourite?

If I had to choose a favourite, it would be Birdsong, for it's sense of movement, lightness, and the moment it captures: that soft shift from winter into spring.
