about the artist

victoria gets much of her inspiration from the surrounding countryside in dorset and the coast of cornwall. whether it’s waking up on the windswept and wild coastline or walking the dog through a winding overgrown path, constantly catching up with nature's change. when she embarks on a painting she draws upon the emotions of the day - the energy, temperature, time of day, and the bustle of wildlife and birdsong. using a process-led approach and the constant manipulation of paint, she paints intuitively until a composition, colour, or mark emerges and ignites a moment of excitement. welcoming mistakes, victoria is invigorated when the painting takes an unexpected turn, becoming more compelling with an element of the unknown.

story

there’s a particular walk that victoria loves to revisit - a pine and deciduous woodland that’s like an enchanted forest, its slopes and curves changing on every corner. after a steep climb, you are rewarded with the most amazing open vista and a horizon view of somerset and dorset. victoria captures the experience and feeling of this favourite space – encapsulating it within this circular, abstracted chaos of colour and mark.
