'From Celtic Sea' is a response to the light, energy and atmosphere of the North Cornish coast. The painting is inspired by the history of the land, visible in the layers of rock.
Contemporary landscape painter Josephine Clouting sold online and in our gallery at Wychwood Art.
Josie immerses herself in the landscape, from man made cultivated botanic gardens to wild stormy beaches and the rolling hills where she lives. Her paintings are intuitive, emotional responses to the natural environment, inspired by the vastness and wonder of the natural world.
Josie’s works are saturated with colour, vitality and energy, reflecting her response to light, atmosphere and topography. Painting and sketching en plein air is a vital part of her practice, enabling her to react to the landscape and play with loose, immediate brush marks.
Experimenting with acrylics on a variety of surfaces and scales, with many large scale paintings as a result are part of the enjoyment of the creative process. Josie's physical movements creating large expansive works are an expression of the energy she feels within the landscape.
Josie graduated with a degree in Fine Art from Norwich University of the Arts in 2012, and is now based in South Oxfordshire. Recent shows include ‘Myth’ a group exhibition at The North Wall, Oxford 2022, the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2020, and Wales Contemporary 2019 & 2020. She was also a finalist in the Sunday Times Watercolour Competition in 2019, and a finalist in the Holly Bush Emerging Woman Painter Prize 2020. Her work has also been featured in Art Seen Magazine, 2022.
