SIENNA SKIES Painting

Born and brought up in the beautiful surroundings of Yorkshire, I am always amazed at the play of light and colour that completely changes the appearance of the environment, its people and wildlife. Creating art is my way of capturing the sights, sounds, moods and memories of subjects that fascinate me. My artwork hovers towards impressionistic and contemporary, rather than photo-realism, as I continue to explore loose styles, which bring out the colour, light and essence of my subjects. So many great artists have tried to capture the magical effects of light in their work – it is, I think, one of the most transformational aspects of any painting, whether it be landscapes, people, nature or still life. I am constantly striving to reflect the impact of light and colour into my own artwork. I exhibit at a number of local galleries and venues across West Yorkshire and I'm delighted that some of my artwork has been selected for collections in UK, Europe, USA, Australia and New Zealand.
