Skylark Galleries 2 OXO Tower
London, United Kingdom
Multi layered mixed media paintings inspired by memories of Cornwall and Cumbria.
Carol Edgar says;
‘I’m drawn to the marks, lines, textures and atmospheres observed above and imagined below the landscape. My paintings are rarely representative of individual places but more an amalgam of atmospheres, colours and formations in my memories of various landscapes that have inspired me particularly in Cornwall and Cumbria’
My inspiration is drawn from natural observation and, though the subject matter is varied, there are recurring themes around plant-forms, landscapes and seascapes. I work towards capturing the ‘essence’ of my chosen subject through the use of colour, texture, multiple layering, fine line and broad gestural brush strokes.
Collaged papers, acrylic mediums, stencilling and carborundum are often used as a starting point in my paintings and a means of loosening up my approach.’
MEET THE ARTIST OPPORTUNITY:
Carol will be in attendance at the gallery - Skylark Galleries, Gabriel’s Wharf between 11-6 on Tuesday 3rd September and Wednesday 11th September.
