Pure Art360 2021: Sophie Douglas
SOPHIE DOUGLAS, BA Hons, MA
Sophie is a fine artist, and moves between materials, subject and concepts fluidly. Asa response to last years pandemic she has developed a daily drawing practise from natural forms she finds. These she collages together to create images that represents the floor of the woodlands she explores with her children.
For 2021, she has gone back to basics, exploringobservational drawing and abstract painting.
Observational drawing is her main teaching practice, working predominantly from nature. These drawings, and the landscapes she spends time in, are the subject her painting practice.
In Sophie’s abstract painting she investigates developing compositions through the application of colour and form using different tools. She predominantly works with acrylic and watercolour paints and ink.
