BA (Hons) Fine Art

Erin has been living and working within Yorkshire for the past 12 years and find the skies, weather and light there very inspirational. The wide expanse of the moors, the coast and the beauty of the Dales all feature in her works.

Erin tends to work from memory, using the landscape as a starting point for a painting but then letting the process of painting itself take over until it forms a response that she is after. Using a limited palette, she often mixes the colours directly onto the canvas, using rags, palette knives and sometimes her fingers, building up the paint from transparent washes to thick impasto in focal areas.

Erin has successfully exhibited throughout the UK and Europe.
