Ms Savill said: "My inspiration comes from everyday rural and urban life which is why the majesty of Exmoor and its wildlife features so strongly."

Her portfolio also includes contemporary impressionist work as a contrast to more traditional work.

Exmoor Art Gallery was set up by the artist to promote the a wealth of talent on Exmoor. She aims to use oils, acrylics and watercolours to "bring her creations to life".

"Watercolour is undoubt-edly the most delicate as it brings subtle light and life to a landscape" Ms Savill said, "whereas, oils add lustre and depth, with acrylics introducing eye-catching metallic paints and visual texture."

She will host the exhibition at the Guildhall Heritage Centre, on Fore Street, from March 31 to April 6.
