We love Teresa Pemberton‘s work. Here’s what she says…

“My work is rooted in the nature and effects of land­scape and seascape through chang­ing emo­tions, move­ment, light and colour. The visual lan­guage used reflects the con­stant con­nec­tion with the ele­ments through daily walks. From ini­tial response to a sub­ject, after obser­va­tional draw­ing, the imag­i­na­tion takes over and instinct and inno­va­tion pro­duce com­pelling can­vases full of beauty and feel­ing.

Sub­jects range from land and seascape to still life objects, gar­dens or envi­ron­men­tal effects such as cli­mate change or recy­cling issues. Cur­rent work con­cerns the sur­face tex­tures and pat­terns of lily ponds inspired by a recent trip to the Eden Project. This work is tak­ing a more abstract direc­tion, with exper­i­men­tal use of sten­cil shapes and the con­trasts between flat and dec­o­ra­tive sur­faces. The “Pond” body of work is grow­ing, and some paint­ings are on show in venues in Ply­mouth dur­ing the British Art Show from l6 Sep­tem­ber.”
