About the artist:
Lorna Wilson first studied Fine Art painting at Kingston University in Surrey where she obtained a 1st class BA (Hons) degree. Wilson then went on to study Fine Art at MA postgraduate level at the Royal Academy Schools in Piccadilly London. "All my paintings whether recent or back catalogue celebrate natural landscapes and while boldly recognisable (whether water or land) they rouse a sense of serenity in the viewer. Inspired by the subtle instances of light, reflection and shadow in the natural world and the transience of landscapes, I strive to replicate these ideas on the canvas. Colour is essential to my work; I am constantly improvising and experimenting with new palettes and tones to capture the shifting light and ephemerality found in nature. The sense of depth is created by the layers of tonal shades and the fact that I rework and repaint elements of the canvas to channel this idea of momentum and portray the shifts in mood and light".
