Diane Hill

London based artist skilled in the art of precision and obsessed with birds and flowers, particularly of the Chinoiserie style

Diane Hill is a highly skilled painter and chinoiserie expert who makes unique designs for interior surfaces.

Her clients recieve the highest quality of painting that will last for decades, whether she has produced a hand-made wall covering or a bespoke mural. She is able to meet any request from both private and commercial clients, and also works with leading designers in the interiors industry.

Diane has been trained by master painters in China in the art of chinoiserie and traditional techniques, where she learned to use natural brushes designed for using watercolours on silk. This training has added to the wealth of knowledge she gained in her degree in textile design and the six years she spent as a senior designer at one of the UK's leading hand-made wallpaper companies.

Diane designs and creates her work at her home in Hertfordshire, where she lives with her husband and two children. Her home studio has been built with large overhead windows that flood it with natural light, providing the ideal setting for selecting colours and textures for each project, whether it is hand-painting pure silk or designing wallpaper embellished with gold leaf. She draws on inspiration from historical reference books, Asian art and ancient techniques, to tastefully adapt classic designs for modern interiors.

The quality of Diane's tailored service means her client's needs are met at every stage of the design process, from initial idea discussions to samples and final sign off. She takes great pleasure in spending time with her clients to understand exactly what they want, whether in their home or their business, resulting in a personal, high-end experience.
