About the artist
Kay is a professional artist whose lyrical floral fantasies transport viewers into a world of natural beauty and wonder. With a deep-seated passion for nature and wildlife, Kay finds inspiration in the intricate details of the natural world. Her artistic journey begins at dawn, where she ventures out to capture the ephemeral beauty of flowers as they open, adorned with dew and occasionally hosting dormant bees. Through her keen eye and camera lens, Kay meticulously documents every stage of the floral life cycle, finding beauty in each moment, whether it's a perfectly formed bud or a windblown bloom losing its petals.
Art style
Kay's artistic process involves a harmonious blend of mediums and techniques to bring her floral visions to life. She works primarily with oils for their versatility and ability to blend color and texture seamlessly. Against an acrylic background, Kay layers her foreground with oil paints, meticulously capturing the delicate nuances of each petal and leaf. Occasionally, she adds touches of gold or silver leaf to highlight specific details, adding a touch of ethereal beauty to her creations. Her art style reflects her dreamy, happy nature, infusing each piece with warmth, charm, and a deep appreciation for the natural world.
Achievements:
With over two decades of experience as a professional artist, Kay has established herself as a respected figure in the art world. Her career was shaped by a transformative moment when she encountered the work of wildlife artist David Shepherd, whose paintings captivated her with their intricate details and vibrant colors. Inspired by Shepherd's mastery, Kay embarked on her own artistic journey, honing her skills and cultivating her unique style. While living in Cyprus for several years, Kay's longing for the flowers and wildlife of the English countryside eventually led her back to rural Cheshire, where she continues to create her enchanting floral fantasies.
