About Gill Billington
The shape of man-made designs like cars and architecture excite me but I also love nature, from the joy of looking at the ever changing clouds in the sky to the intricate detail that is revealed when getting up close and personal with flowers and seashells. I enjoy producing creative images from my photographs to make stunning artwork for your home or business. I have exhibited my work at The Tudor House Gallery in Sawbridgeworth, The Maynard Gallery in Welwyn Garden City and The Mardleybury Gallery in Datchworth. I also sell my images worldwide via my website here and at GillBillingtonArt.com **ALL PHOTOGRAPHS AND ARTWORKS IN THIS PORTFOLIO ARE COPYRIGHTED AND OWNED BY GILL BILLINGTON.
