This colourful, vibrant, landscape painting is one of my favourites and currently graces the wall of my living room. It's created with archival quality materials and sold with hanging furniture already fixed (unframed). I loved the colours in the reference photo and particularly the way the almost white sky contrasts with the almost black of the deepest reflections in the water. I painted this painting upside down (the canvas, not me!) so I could paint more freely, making more expressive marks, rather than getting 'hung up' on pinpoint accuracy, which I find makes me feel constricted. Fun fact: the small blue patch in the water just to the left of the centre of the painting is created using my precious tube of genuine lapis lazuli, the (very expensive) pigment that medieval and renaissance painters used to create the blues in religious paintings, for example of the Madonna's robes.

Sophia is a British artist living in Spain. In early 2022 following a spiritual awakening she sold everything she owned and moved to Andalusia to paint full time. Her recent solo show at Green & Stone, Chelsea, in November 2022, was hugely well received, particularly in respect of her vibrant contemporary portraits. Sophia is known for her bold yet sensitive use of colour, eye-catching compositions, and expressive brushwork. She says: 'much as I love capturing the natural world in paint, I am first and foremost a portraitist and I almost exclusively paint women. There is a technical aspect to my work, particularly in the exploration of colour and the possibilities of oil paint, which I use exclusively for portraiture. At their heart my portraits are concerned with showing strong, individualistic, women who challenge society’s ideas of how they should dress and express themselves. In this respect I consider my work to be political.'
