The Bucklands were an artistic family, with many of the grandchildren creating botanical sketches or portraits of their pets. Their artist instincts may have been encouraged by the greatest artist in the family, Colonel Arthur Morrow, the husband of Mariamne Buckland. He spent his leisure time sketching, drawing and painting. He was a skilled draughtsman and many examples of his work can be seen on the walls at Highwic.
