Sylvia exhibits widely across the UK and international art fairs. Residing in East Anglia for most of her life she has been a regular exhibitor for forty years in the region.
Inspired in recent years by gardens and woodlands, her larger paintings in particular, reflect her love of colour and texture, showing a confidence that has matured over the years.
Two of Sylvia’s paintings are in the Norwich Union Art Collection and her work is in many private collections in the UK and abroad.
In 2023 she was commissioned to paint a large oil painting for The Omaze Devon House.
Sylvia has exhibited at The Royal Academy Summer Show 2009 and several times at the Mall
Galleries, including the Royal Institute Of Oil Painters 1999 The Laing Landscape Exhibition 1999.
She has held three solo exhibitions in Niigata Japan and many in the UK. She was artist in
residence on two occasions at Burton Agnes Hall, a stately home in Yorkshire, where she she
spent a month painting the gardens and interior.
