Artist of the Week - Audrey Greaves
This week we have had Audrey Greaves as our Artist of the Week. Audrey began
painting seriously in 1992 after joining an Art Club. She enjoys painting
landscapes, flowers, wild life, portraits, pet portraits, abstract and naive
paintings.
Audrey says:
"At the moment I am painting a few still lifes in oils. My
inspiration is found in the English landscape as well as scenes from abroad. I
am also inspired by flowers in my own garden as well as parks and gardens that
I visit and life in general. I paint in oils, acrylics, watercolour and mixed
media.
My work has been hung in
several exhibitions throughout Yorkshire and Lancashire over the last 17 years
and also in galleries. While exhibiting at the Ilkley Art Exhibitions in 1998 I
was elected an Associate of the British Society of Painters. I have done
several successful portrait, pet portrait and landscape commissions from
photographs and would be pleased to do more."
Hi - I think that the freshness of this painting is the making of it. The colours and simplicity stand a great deal of looking. Just enough pattern to keep the eye interested and not too much to make it busy. I love it! I'm off to see more of your work!
