Shape Shifting II – After Jan Davidsz De Heem

Sophie Cook | Oil | 23 x 17 inches

My work is principally concerned with observation, colour relationships and the dynamic interplay of marks on the painted surface. Flowers play a key role in my practice as their complex forms, limitless palette combinations and lyricism inform a visual language that I want my paintings to convey.

Each painting attempts to describe the language of form and light in a way which is unique and as a direct emotional response to the subject. I work from life and look forward to the change of seasons throughout the year and the effects these conditional shifts have on my work.

I paint mainly inside from my studio in Kent but occasionally venture outside to paint the landscape.
