View the work of narrative, contemporary artist Angela Brittain whose colourful and exuberant paintings straddle illustration & fine art. Concentrating on painting after many years as a professional illustrator and graphic artist, her pictures will grow in popularity and value as her involvement deepens. Her interest in the wit and interplay between people experiencing one situation where their emotions or aims are opposed is a current theme that has resulted in 9 paintings in the 'fracture' series.
Currently Angela is exploring the simplification of colour balance and tonal interplay using myths or observed scenes as inspiration. Responding to the economic downturn, these pictures are more affordable to those who appreciate original art and have a limited budget. Their clean, simple nature also make them compatable with modern interiors.
Her other passion is trompe l'oeil and it's ability to fool the eye. As well as painting in England she is decorating her Italian house with imagined 3D scenes and images.
