About
the artist
Diane studied Art and Ceramics at York and Harrogate. She now paints
full time in her studio near York or out on location.
Inspiration
comes from her adopted North Yorkshire. Runswick Bay is her very
special place. Living near York she doesn't have far to go to get
inspired. Having the Dales, the East Coast, the Moors and the Lake
District virtually on the doorstep.
When
its time for a change a still life will be set up or one of her
cats may offer to pose if not there is always next door's.
Diane
enjoys experimenting with techniques, mixed media and the use of
texture in her work.
Working in most media, her particular favourite is soft pastels
as you have immediate colour and boy what colours!
Diane
also uses acrylics, water-colour, gouache and oils. She loves the
different effects you can get when painting the same subject over
and over again often from memory.
Diane
has just had her second solo show at The Blake Gallery, York. Her
work can be seen at Contemporary Galleries throughout Britain and
on her website www.artgal.net
