Holly Patchett

“My paintings focus on exploring the luminosity of oil paint through landscapes and in doing so, creating different effects and moods. My landscape compositions are inspired by my love for nature. I have tried to depict a softness which reflects the calmness of a natural scene. Reading Beatrix Potter’s books as a child gave me a love for gardens and the countryside which I never got growing up in the city. I wanted to communicate her humble, gentle nature through my art-making.”
