Liz Bolloten

 I am a Watercolour Artist who is constantly striving to capture the ethereal ever changing beauty of the Natural World.
Continually influenced by Pattern, especially Negative Spaces and Light
I see subjects everywhere, but especially in overlooked places.. I often attempt to move away from a representational approach to allow the subjects themselves the space to move and to create a sense of transience.

My work is evolving as I discover how to stretch and bend the medium. Endeavouring to slow down, keep pace with the water cycle and to exploit the opportunities that arise in the drying process. In other words, breaking the rules! Colour, Light, Atmosphere and mood influence how I visit an initial idea, aiming for authenticity in my brushwork.
