Daughter of artist Pauline Bewick, Poppy and her sister Holly grew up in an artistic atmosphere where they were encouraged to paint. Poppy studied art & design in the College of Marketing and Design, Dublin after which she went to the National College of Art & Design, Dublin to study printed textile design. Every painting is a potential textile design. She loves to paint insects and animals with plants and flowers. Poppy uses her camera to get detailed photos of plants and insects.
