Luxury gifts & stationary designed & handmade in Norfolk
We are Amanda and Samantha Jennings, a mother and daughter artist team based in North Norfolk UK. As coloured pencil, pastel, and watercolour artists we are often inspired and very passionate about the wildlife and countryside that surrounds us.
At Gemini's Fine Art Studio and as a small family-run business, we pride ourselves in sourcing only sustainable, recyclable, biodegradable and compostable materials wherever possible, and our packaging is plastic-free. From FSC-certified paper, down to the gift boxes and ribbon that are made from recycled bottles! Everything is designed, made and dispatched in the UK from our little studio in Norfolk.
We are massive animal lovers and are proud owners of 4 dogs (having had rescued dogs for over 32 years!), and have cherished every moment with them.
Inspirational Story...
Just recently, we uncovered old letters written by Amanda's parents (and my grandparents) from when her father was away at RAF bases across the UK, Egypt, and Germany, to name but a few, during the 50's as an engineer working on the iconic spitfires. In these letters, they wrote about their daily lives and how much they loved and missed each other. Without these letters we would never have learnt about the struggles and hardships of our parents and grandparents.
In this day and age of technology, we use text messages, video calls and emails, but lacks the personal touch that handwritten letters give, and most of these cannot be passed onto our children and grandchildren to show a window into our family history.
Reading these beautiful letters inspired us to create our own, uniquely designed writing papers and notecards. Whether it be for family or friends, pen-pals or sweethearts, these writing papers can be for any occasion for the young and old alike that others can cherish for many years to come.

Original Artwork
We do all our own art using coloured pencils, pastels and watercolour, often focusing on florals and wildlife, but not entirely restricted to them, giving our products a unique and special quality to them, and that under NO circumstances is our art made using AI technology.
Whether it is to commemorate a beloved pet, or wish to celebrate your dog, cat, horse or family, we will work closely with you to help bring them to life for you to treasure and enjoy for years to come. Pet portraits make perfect gifts for those special friends or loved ones who would be overjoyed to receive one, or maybe give them a gift voucher so that they can choose to have their favourite picture drawn for themselves.
