Artwork for Fiona Flint
Details
How would you describe the work you do and why?
Mine is an art that is made by confronting the land. Painting primarily in oils, I work "en plain air". Nothing is more evocative than the immediacy of the moving light and colour around me as images emerge.
For you what does being an artist mean?:
An opportunity to study the power and rugged beauty of the Black Mountains where I live, watching the weather and the ever changing face of nature.
Describe what you call yourself/your practice?:
An artist pursuing the visual story of a landscape, working in mixed media including oil paint, gouache and charcoal.
Your practice & activities include e.g workshops, teaching:
2026 Open Studio at the Granary.
Information regarding workshops and teaching will be available early summer
CV & Education, relevant & leading to your artistic practice:
