'Two trees in the Cotswolds II’ is an original oil painting by Georgie Dowling. This painting depicts a view of two trees and small bushes along the edge of a rich green rolling field. A pattern of fields along the horizon line fades into the sky. The paint is applied thickly with a palette knife creating an interesting and varied texture. From a body of work produced during the Covid-19 lockdowns, used as a way to escape the confinements that we found ourselves in, searching for peaceful space away from the uncertainty surrounding us. Mostly produced from memories of exploring the Cotswold countryside, these pieces portray the defining details that stood out to the artist whilst exploring the local landscape. The paintings are vibrant and uplifting, inviting the viewer into their serene setting.

Georgie Dowling artist with Wychwood Art. Georgie was raised near the coast in rural West Wales surrounded by rolling hills and farmland, no doubt influencing her current practice. Having moved to Cheltenham to study Fine Art she has now based herself there. Work is split between painting en plein air across the country, capturing elements of the surrounding landscape, and working in the studio. “I work quite quickly and my marks are spontaneous and impulsive, I embrace happy accidents and enjoy the life that can be seen in a painting when the artist works instinctively. Inspiration comes to me while exploring the land and sea, sourcing colours and forms that give me a sense of place. The coastline is of particular interest to me; the continuous momentum of the sea and everchanging light is an endless source of inspiration ” Georgie was raised in rural West Wales surrounded by rolling hills and patchwork fields, no doubt influencing her current artistic practice. Having moved to Cheltenham to study Fine Art she has now based herself there working from her home studio. Inspired by the British countryside, she explores the beauty of the landscape through her oil paintings.
