All Things Considered

More from Elizabeth Merriman
Posted by Simon Lewin

Here's 'Goodbye Winter', another of our favourite paintings from our forthcoming exhibition of new work by Elizabeth Merriman which opens on Saturday 22nd May 2010.

“My new work is inspired by the age old tradition of still-life. Starting to paint small compositions of Winter and now Spring flowers in favourite jugs and pots, pushing them to various degrees of abstraction to allow each painting its own feeling and atmosphere, while also drawing upon the daily weather conditions.

The sense of colour used in each composition is very important to me and often dictates the beginning of a painting, however, sometimes this is only to be obliterated later on and the final painting can be much changed over a period of time.”
