About The Artwork

Gestural abstract landscape painting inspired by the USA desert land. Abstract cacti can be seen in the foreground. The painting is unframed, varnished and ready to hang. It comes with a certificate of authenticity from the artist. About the artist: Alanna Eakin (b.1988) is a British painter. She lives in London and works from her studio in Wimbledon. Graduating in 2010 with a BA in Fine Art at Central Saint Martin’s London. Alanna took a step back after graduating. It is only in the past few years Alanna has gone on to seriously develop her professional art career and has since taken part in several exhibitions and art fairs in London and nationwide. Her work is constantly evolving and developing. ​Alanna's work is inspired by nature, particularly exotic places like deserts where the colours are richer and highly saturated. She is drawn to vast desolate expanses, voids, devoid of human activity. It is the comforting and calming nature of these places that she wishes to translate to the viewer. ​Alanna's work is unapologetically colourful, a staple that has been with her since a young age. Often her technique is decidedly abstracted, however recently she has been producing figurative features like trees and acknowledging the representation between sky and land. ​She often starts a painting by viewing several photographs of a place and then with an initial immediacy she lets the brush and materials articulate her response, painting intuitively and from memory. Materials, layers, details and brush marks are almost as important to Alanna as the overall piece. Alanna works in several mediums including oil and acrylic paint and enjoys the way the materials force her to paint with various responses. Alanna's approach is inspired by the likes of Henri Matisse, Joan Mitchell, Helen Frankenthaler, Monet, Peter Doig, Georgia O'Keeffe and many more.

Alanna Eakin (b.1988) is an emerging British painter currently living and working in London. She graduated in 2010 with a BA in Fine Art at Central Saint Martin’s London. Alanna has shown work in several exhibitions and art fairs in London and nationwide. Her work is constantly evolving. Alanna's work is concerned with themes of nature, escapism and nostalgia. She has a particular interest in colour, light and abstract mark making. She collects references from the everyday, from travels to exotic places and from memories both present and in childhood. Imagination, memory and imagery allow her to translate a dreamlike scenario onto the surface, playing with colour, light and dimensions. The paintings themselves are loosely planned out in terms of colour and composition. They are made up of layers materials with particular attention paid in the initial stages to the unpredictable nature of abstract mark-making with the paint informing each decision and often inspiring a completely disparate conclusion. The later stages of the painting are carefully considered and composed. Alanna's approach is inspired by the likes of Henri Matisse, David Hockney, Pierre Bonnard, Caspar Friedrich, Joan Mitchell, Claude Monet, Peter Doig and many more.
