A colourful collection of prints featuring some iconic scenes in North Wales and Chester, are available at a popular Mold venue.
The award-winning Woodworks Garden Centre & Café, on Wrexham Road, now sells the work of artist Julie Littler.
A Woodworks spokesman said: "We are extremely lucky to have such a talented artist like Julie Littler living and working locally.
"Inspired by stunning, local landscapes and the beauty of nature, Julie's works of art will enhance any wall and provide many years of enjoyment.
"We have carefully handpicked a collection of Julie Littler's pieces, including familiar scenes of Mold High Street, Northop village, Llandudno pier, Chester Eastgate Clock and Chester Cathedral, which are available to buy now."
The work of Julie, from Chester-based The Littler Places Art, was recently recognised by Dragons' Den legend Theo Paphitis.
Her business was chosen by Theo himself during his Small Business Sunday sessions on Twitter, he then retweeted to his near half a million followers.
The weekly initiative, set up by Theo in 2010, now has more than 3,000 #SBS winners and supports small businesses in the UK.

Business and retail entrepreneur and self-confessed shopkeeper, Theo re‐tweeted Julie's message to his almost 500,000 followers and as a result, Julie has been overwhelmed with support and orders for her happy and uplifting art.
The Littler Places Art is also profiled on the #SBS website (www.theopaphitissbs.com) that is exclusive to all Small Business Sunday winners.
Julie's artistic influences are from when she was an assistant cruise director with Princess Cruises and she travelled to many parts of the world including the Caribbean.
She paints using bright and cheerful colours in gouache. Her recent commissions include paintings of North Wales, Warrington, Wigan and, of course, many of Chester itself.
Julie said: ''I was delighted to be recognised for my art and to win the award. Joining the Small Business Sunday winners was a privilege and to receive the endorsement from Theo Paphitis at the SBS annual event in Birmingham was a fantastic opportunity."
Small business champion Theo added: "We are thrilled to welcome new #SBS members and highlight just how important it is to support our small businesses here in the UK.
"My vision is that everyone who has ever won an #SBS award from me becomes part of a friendly club; like-minded individuals who can share successes and learnings. The website will also give a valuable profile to the winners chosen and I wish Julie and The Littler Places Art every success."
The Littler Places Art is available online at www.thelittlerplaces.co.uk and signed prints of her work are now available at The Woodworks Garden Centre & Café in Mold.
