Gill Edwards British
Gill Edwards layers paint with brushes and trowels, allowing pencils to carelessly dance across the surface. Layer by layer, through additions and subtractions, careful scraping and deliberate scratching, she unveils captivating textures and intricate patterns.
Focusing on shapes, Edwards’ discerning eye gently masks certain areas of the painting, allowing only the most beautiful parts to stand out and shine. Her paintings reflect the objects of everyday life, creating a poetic dance between objects and space.
Patterns and colour have always accompanied Edwards throughout her career as a textile designer. Alongside her passion for collecting ceramics, she is now happiest exploring innovative colour palettes and finding delight in the flattened silhouettes of everyday objects.
