« Like ourselves, landscapes are unpredictable, poetic, and ever-changing, they grow, die, and move from darkness towards light. »
Iona Roberts is an award-winning artist based in the United Kingdom whose paintings have been exhibited in both England and Scotland. She describes time and place as central to her artistic practice. Roberts' compositions document the passage of time in a location, including the people who inhabit and move through the space. Her creative process is most often driven by location drawing and painting. She paints using mixed media composing her own "musical space".
