Snowdrops In a Spotty Enamel Mug. An Original Still Life Painting, Flower Painting, Affordable Art, by Deborah Windsor. A handful of delicate snowdrops in a white spotted enamel mug painted in thick oil paint on canvas board and framed in a recycled distressed frame. This contemporary Still Life Painting has rich and spontaneous brushstrokes and is painted in fresh joyful spring colours. It is painted in a modern impressionist way with simple naive mark making. The artists says about this painting "this is a loosely executed Still Life painting that captures the excitement I feel when I see the first snowdrops coming through the cold ground early in the year. I have to rush out and pick a handful of these beautiful little flowers and put them in a small vase or mug so I can paint them immediately. I am always amazed by their delicate beauty and ability to survive in such harsh snowy conditions, they truly mean for me that Spring is on its way."

Deborah Windsor, painter and printmaker, is available for sale online and in our art gallery at Wychwood Art. Deborah grew up in the Kent countryside surrounded by animals and nature and started painting with her mother who was a portrait painter at a very young age. After art college Deborah co-founded a ran a successful ceramic design business in Portobello Road, London, designing, making and selling contemporary ceramics and undertaking commissions for well know media clients. Moving back to Kent in her thirties Deborah taught art and returning to painting, her first love, developed her still-life painting style. Deborah works in oil and acrylics building up her paintings with layers and washes to achieve depth and richness. Pattern, texture, decoration, shapes and colour are all important elements in her work. Working from life is vital to Deborah so that she can capture the essence of her subject. Jugs and vases spill over with fresh flowers and she will often paint part of one of her abstract paintings in the background to add an extra element to the composition. Deborah’s work features vintage china and fabrics from her collections which with her mainly gentle colour palette give her work a homely, peaceful feeling. Deborah now lives with her husband Vincent and their ginger cat in part of a converted Victorian workhouse, her studio is in the old bakery.
