Tutoring at St Ives School of painting

The Ocean and Abstraction

Work with artist Amy Albright to explore how you can convey the ocean with its ever shifting moods and colour. You will use abstraction to capture your emotive as well as visual responses to time spent out on Porthmeor Beach just outside our studio. Think about being under the sea, looking down on it from a glider, feeling it wash up on the beach over your toes. Explore an abstract and loose creative approach to painting and help establish your own style and identity.

Reviews

"I've quite fallen in love with your evocative, sensual paintings. It's extraordinary that even as an internet thumbnail sized image the work vapourously conveys a much much larger Celtic grandeur. It's all very mythical. I'd love to be able to use some of your work in upcoming projects for clients. In fact it's very much worth seeing your work now since it has the sort of presence one really needs to build an interior scheme around. "

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, TV presenter & Interior designer.

Amy Albrights paintings seem to already have their own language, with unusual movement, a drifting, and depth with the works which is compelling. There is a sense of real exploration of space, which she has made her own, a place where through veils of paint we are allowed a glimpse into a shimmering world.

Testimonials:

'I absolutely love my painting. There is so much depth and vibrancy of colour in the piece that it stands out as the centrepiece of my room, and really adds brightness and character to it. There are so many layers and hidden details that I keep discovering and it completely fits the space it was made for.' Rupert, Commercial Director, London. Re. Commissioned painting.

'Just a quick note to thank you so much for our painting, hung proudly on our kitchen wall yesterday and every time we walk past it seems we visually unpeel another layer of work, it really gets better each time we look.
Thank you so much'
Martin & Nikki.

'We're both delighted with our painting Tidal Shifts and enjoying it very much. The photos
didn't really do it justice as it's much better in real life.'

‘They fill me with peace and keep my interest at the same time. I see new details almost everyday and they really work well in the room together’
