A visit to artist Katie James’ artist’s house and garden – jewel colours and a rich palette x
Very inspired by last week’s visit to Rachel Ashwell’s house and her focus on her colour palette I thought it would be fun to have a visit to this contrasting house, with a stronger palette, where my friend artist Katie James lives.
The garden here, a typical, long, narrow, suburban London garden, was completely empty but for the large,…

Thanks for the tour of your awesome home and garden, thanks for not using those horrible dark colours which have ruined so many beautiful homes
I am inspired to try a gallery wall with all kinds of art . Amateur,professional, made by our kids or cats,and family fotos and treasures tossed in.Feather,moss, you name it. Inspired. My color palate? I loveso many colors but Orange seems to be taking over my life.I have a bright blue spray painted table , it brightens up the far end of the yard, now I think I need more of this. Thank you Katie and Georgie!
Oh wow! All so lovely and informal and gorgeous. And, was that a Gordon Setter puppy up on the mantlepiece? I have an old fella of that breed. Lovely natured dogs.
Delightful
What a clever, gifted artist. The wonderful footage soothed my soul. ❤
❤wild and beautiful
So so very beautiful ❤️
Loved the home and garden tour. Worth $25 and I didn’t have to leave my easy chair. Loved the discussion of color and the use of blue in the garden.
Thank you interesting
What an incredible artist!! Stunning works.Wow, absolutely gorgeous home! I want to cuddle up with a cup of tea and a good book here ( after spending hours soaking in all of the beautiful art ). Really enjoyed this a lot! I am off to sew curtains and hang some art!
Watched this from my sister's farm in Tasmania. Loved every second – gorgeous home and garden. I'd love to have a cuppa or raise glass with you two!
Interesting question about personal palettes . A couple of friends told me they loved my style/ colour combinations , and I didnt know I had one . On reflection I think my colours are cream , lemon highlight splashes , tealy blue , silver green with black accents . My lounge feels like living in the midst of a vibrant greenhouse with all my trailing Monsteras and spikey Sansevieras taking over like Triffids . Not strange really considering I started my gardening life age 12 school holiday job pricking out annuals for our Town Council gardens and for the rest of 60yrs after that working in Nurseries and gardens including latterly establishing my own 1/4 acre . Sth Is NZ means a garden full of fruit just now , plums , lemons , avocado , pears , olives , almonds , feijoa , tomato ,courgette , capsicums , basil , parsley etc etc and the freezer is filling fast . Patiently waiting to turn into winter soups and crumbles .
Who was in the large black and white photograph in Katie's bedroom? What a strikingly beautiful woman. What a lovely garden too.
Your always a pleasure to spend time with, thank you for another lovely visit💗💚💗
This was an awesome garden tour, thanks to you both. Martha, California Zone 10

What a gorgeous home and garden! As a thrifter/hoarder, I found it a wonderful journey through the home and garden, taking note of the colour combinations and unusual ways she displays her treasures. Thank you for taking us along!
Just. found you and what a joy.
Love the way Katie uses meaningful family photos & relics as decor. Great vibe! No junk from Hobby Lobby! Lol Her aesthetic feels very English to me, or at least how I always imagine quaint & historic English homes to be when I read about them in books (from my home in America 😉). Especially the lovely curtains! The great old English novels always have much ado about the proper curtain fabric. Quintessential! And hers are so on-point! Hope we get to see more of Katie & her lovely home & garden. So inspirational! 🌿
Love Katie's design and style of her yard and house it gives me inspiration , very organic and wild..just my taste! My pallette is ever growing😁
Loved it! Plenty of inspiring artistic expression. Thank you. ❤️ from Oz. x
hello i loved this video of an artist's home and garden and also particularly liked the tour of rachel ashwell''s home. was wondering if u would film more home tours in england, as i love the decor there which is a little different than here in canada- thankyou for your lovely videos!!!
That was the most delightful visit, thank you! The luxurious garden and then, at the end, an artist studio! Just what I would like to have. I’m astounded that she could take a plain, long, backyard, and make it like a little paradise. So homey, just beautiful.
From a Psychotherapist and Artist, the house is just perfect!!! I have also purchased my late mother's house and re-adapting is definitely a careful and creative process.
Great Fun!
Why would people be rude about the artist’s Swiss heritage?
Outside here in Eastern Newfoundland Canada today is a mixture of snow, ice pellets, and rain – watching this video was a true form of escapism as a result 🙂 Proof that you don't need a huge garden to create a beautiful space!
Loved this! How relaxed and wonderful you are together. True friends- lovely to see! Thank you for sharing!!
Loved the garden and home tour!
