Art That Speaks to the Heart
Hi, I’m Tanya Read ~ an artist and painter living in the quiet beauty of the French countryside.
My work flows from a love of nature, storytelling, and soulful simplicity. Every painting and print I create is grounded in the belief that art has the power to connect us ~ to ourselves, to each other, and to the world around us.
My paintings are rooted in a deep love of nature ~ from expressive horses and beloved animals to wild creatures, flowers, trees and quiet landscapes. I work with a variety of mixed media, allowing layers of colour, texture and emotion to emerge organically.
Each original artwork is created with intention and care ~ whether it is part of a seasonal collection or a personal commission. These are soulful works created to bring character, warmth and a sense of connection into your space.
What I Can Create

With over 15 years of experience in art, illustration, and visual storytelling, I bring both professional skill and a deeply intuitive approach to everything I create.

I work best with people who care deeply about what they bring into their homes ~ people who value beauty, connection and meaning. For commissions, I take the time to understand the story behind the person, animal or place I’m painting, so the finished piece feels personal, authentic and truly yours.
Just thoughtful collaboration, genuine connection, and artwork created with care, feeling and heart.
