« In this age of instant gratification and constant distraction, it’s not easy… but I want to be fully present in a process where intuition, creativity, and subconscious can take over. »
Sharon Drew's paintings are an exploration of the abstract qualities of light, rhythm, repetition, and movement that she discovers through landscapes. The UK-based artist travels to the shores of the Thames and the coasts of Cornwall and Kent, reveling in 'exposure to weather, expansive skies, as well as tides and turbulent waters'. Drew makes outdoor sketches in oils and watercolors that help her observe the moment. She uses these impressions as visual metaphors when painting in her studio.
