Artwork Description

This oil painting is part of my " Mother Nature" Garden Series which was inspired by my Mothers Garden. Both Mum and Dad were amazing gardeners. This patch of Freesias, Alison and Pig Face were struggling to grow because of the severe drought and water restrictions; however Mum is always inventive and watered them with grey water from the laundry. They thrived and bloomed.
I enjoy drawing, photographing and painting my mothers garden when visiting. We spend a lot time talking about past 'gardens" and slowly make our way around her garden, enjoying the history of her plants. I cherish the time we spend together in her garden.

Cheryl Willcox is an Australian oil painter known for her luminous, impressionistic paintings of lily ponds, coastal landscapes, and expressive florals. Based on the Central Coast of NSW, Cheryl draws daily inspiration from the rock shelves, ocean light, and abundant plant life surrounding her home.
A professionally trained artist and lifelong educator, Cheryl blends traditional realism with bold, intuitive brushwork. Her paintings are built in layers, capturing movement, energy, and the subtle shifts of colour and light that define the Australian landscape.
Cheryl’s work is deeply autobiographical — each painting holds a memory, a feeling, or a moment from her everyday life. Widely collected across Australia and internationally, her paintings offer a quiet, uplifting presence in the home, inviting viewers to pause, breathe, and reconnect with beauty.
