About

Beth Giles is a South Wales based artist and illustrator, working out of her studio in her own independent Art and Craft Gallery in Pontyclun, Rhondda Cynon Taff.

A commissioned artist, Beth is mainly known for her natural history watercolours and acrylic on raw linen canvas pieces, but often has the opportunity to explore new and different themes and techniques with her work on request.

"Sometimes I will be asked by a client to create something in a different medium or on a different subject to my signature work. Often, I will take the opportunity to 'stretch my artistic legs', and explore this way of working and see where it takes me. Undoubtedly though, I will return to my beloved bees, foxes and hares. I'm not yet done telling their stories."

Beth's work can be viewed on her social media platforms, links available below, or at Giles Gallery, Pontyclun, CF729EG.
