Cornish Artists – Established

Maggie is fascinated by the tracks and marks left behind as the sea goes out, and how the light reflects off the wet sand. She also enjoys watching the constantly changing sky and sea and bringing a sense of the weather into her paintings.

Kirsten is a contemporary semi-abstract landscape painter, working in a variety of mediums. Her landscapes draw from the space and sense of the wild she finds in Cornwall.

Full of the enthusiasm and intensity Robin has for his art, his paintings perfectly capture the vibrant transient atmospheres created when natures organic forces combine to produce the staggeringly and breathtakingly scenery of our beautiful Cornwall.

Sally says, "I think my most successful pieces evolve when I have been able to distil the power, colour, atmosphere and essence of a place or subject and to communicate the excitement I feel in a three-way dialogue between myself as the artist, the work itself and and the person looking at it."

Victoria Gillow is a Cornish painter who’s practice is informed by a lifetime of looking and belonging. Her Cornish heritage and love of the land and sea has informed a practice of landscape and coastal paintings- generating work mainly on site-en plain air.

Living abroad for several years necessitated career breaks from nursing but continued to facilitate her love of painting and pottery. On return, intially to West Cornwall, Jackie studied at the St Ives School of Painting, followed by St Ives Art Club and became a full time artist, working at Penzance and Newlyn Schools of painting and selling her work in several galleries throughout Cornwall.
