Eleanor Woolley
Eleanor Woolley is a figurative and landscape painter, her inspiration is taken from her surrounding landscape, and the human interaction within it. She has a love for the everyday things, often passed by unnoticed.
Her paintings are vibrant, often painted Plein air and finished in the studio. Starting with bold outlines, many layers of paint are used to create the depth of colour. Her paintings are spontaneous, using washes of oil to create the desired form. She often uses a palette knife to layer the paint and cut into it, producing a pleasing texture.
Eleanor's current work is inspired by her travels around Gloucestershire, the Cotswolds and the long shadows created by figures in urban landscapes.
‘In my most recent work shadows are becoming more significant, I like to play with how they fall and merge into the foreground. I love the long shadows created by the early morning or evening light.
