Sian Storey

Sian Storey is a contemporary British painter and muralist based in Basingstoke, Hampshire. Known for her vibrant fusion of fine art and street art, she creates expressive works that celebrate the natural world. Her art appears in public murals and private collections across the world. Sian has collaborated with work has featured in national media including The Guardian, The Times and BBC.

Sian’s paintings hang in homes from Manhattan to Melbourne, Bilbao to Bahrain. She blends delicate brushwork with urban spray-paint techniques to create richly layered textures and vivid colour palettes. Recurring themes — birds, blossoms, and female figures — evoke both strength and fragility, while her inspiration from Japan’s flora and symbolism brings a sense of serenity and transformation. The result is a body of work that bridges the natural and the dreamlike.

Symbolism and emotion drives Storey’s practice creating paintings that hover between the real and the imagined. Her signature palette favours blues, teals, and golds - tones recalling her coastal upbringing in West Sussex, Great Britain. By combining spray paint, acrylics, and occasionally collage, she captures both motion and emotion on canvas.
