My painting theme for 2020 is about altered states. Inspired by thoughts of how we change according to circumstances and what life throws at us, I thought I would start with the simple idea of how love changes not only how we feel about ourselves but also how we view the world. That lovely fizzy feeling, however short-lived, makes us all powerful and benevolent. I have called this painting “Amore” and it is 48 x 48cm, oil on board.

About angela brittain
Each work I create has a search for “rightness” – an attempt to solve complex and often self-imposed compositional problems. They often have a tension below the surface.
I work mainly in oil or acrylics on board.
People fascinate me but I’m not sure that I made a conscious decision to make people central to my work or if this subject chose me.
I have a Diploma in Art and Design and worked for several years as a graphic designer and illustrator before finally returning to my first love of drawing & painting in 2008.
I have taught art to children and adults and currently offer one-to-one workshops from my home studio in West Sussex.
I am a Member of the Society of Women Artists (SWA) and exhibit in London and the South.
