Introducing Heure de Fleur with new floral sketches every month

All sketches are new original artworks, created by Paul Hugh and start by ink sketching then involve digital drawing, digital painting and generative AI tools.


Heure De Fleur is an idea to share the magnificence of flowers, and the verdant beauty of plant life, in all its forms, through an ever flowing stream of original floral artworks. The Heure De Fleur website will soon evolve to display many more artworks, for now, please check the Gallery and Latest Sketches pages.

We are forever inspired by the miraculous beauty of the natural world, and by influences from renowned artists such as Marianne North, Pierre-Joseph Redoute, Georgia O'Keeffe, Pierre Jean François Turpin and Ernst Haeckel.

One Thousand Flowering Trees

I started sketching and painting flowering trees this year and promised my myself not to stop until I've painted 1000. Why? Because I've been putting off painting for so long and this year the blooming trees around here, in Lincolnshire, are such a particlualry beautiful sight this spring in 2024, so why not?

Take a look on my 1000 Flowering Trees page to see all the trees I've painted and published so far.
