ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This is part of a pair, however can also be a stand alone piece. I have been fortunate to travel to many beautiful places in the last year, Singapore, Bali and just recently Ibiza. All incredibly inspiring and captivating with there colourful infused lifestyles and settings. Here I wanted the colours, shape (always being my main inspiration behind my work and in this case found away from home) to be uncomplicated, simple, calming, working them together to disarm and engage the viewer. The paint has been applied using brushes, palette knives and scrapers. Lines are free hand. Colour palette: Pale Aqua, yellows, greens & brown My paintings are never an entirely flat/smooth surface. Layers and layers of paint are used creating natural lumps and bumps across the canvas, sometimes completely intentional and sometimes not. I use lots of different paint types, experimenting with texture and the final finishes you can achieve with each one. All 4 canvas sides/edges are finished with a white emulsion. The edges will not always be totally smooth, as there may be some lumps and bumps from paint that has run over the sides and some of the colours may still be ever so slightly visible. The name (Left) and number (Right) of the artwork is handwritten on the back of the canvas on the top stretcher bar, not usually visible. Just lift up the bit of canvas below the staples and there it will be. *Please note: There are no fixings in place for hanging, nor do I supply these. This is up to yourself the buyer to decide and execute depending on whether you want the artwork to hang in situ framed or un-framed.*

Sophie Gradden is a Contemporary artist born in Buckinghamshire. Home & studio are based in Deptford - South East London. Successfully completing her Art foundation in 2004 at the University of Gloucestershire going on to further her studies at Bristol UWE in a degree of Fine Art. Not completing her degree due to pursuing a career in interior design, her art skills were not lost, just tucked away for a while. In 2016 Sophie reignited her love for painting and set up a makeshift studio in her home and began creating, whilst working full time. Exposing, for the first time, her artistic world to the public at Windsor Contemporary Art Fair. Since then, the art continues. In April 2018 a decision was made to dedicate herself to her art full time, no more 9-5, just painting! Inspired by colour & shape. Creating textures, layers, a juxtaposition of clean/ordered/solid with undefined/chaotic/broken areas. Bold striking colours, complimented by muted tones that capture and disarm the viewer. Preferring the medium of a Acrylic, Sophie also loves to experiment with household emulsions, spray paint, chalks and pastels.
