Scottish Contemporary Artist: Margaretann Bennett

Fallow Fields, Largo

Margaretann Bennett's current paintings explore the Scottish west Coast landscape through use Read more

of mixed media. She creates a surface of rich colour and sumptuous texture, often incorporating layers of delicate paper which she pre-colours and marks. Bennett's approach is intuitive rather than analytical: there is deliberate tension between areas of abstraction and finer detail. Most of her contemporary paintings are a distillation of collected experiences into a visual unity and an evocation, rather than depiction of place.

Margaretann Bennett says: "I seek to convey a sense of time passing and lives lived, drawing on elements where man has left his mark, for example lines and shapes created by old stone walls, steadings and sheepfolds."

'Fallow Fields, Largo' shows the patchwork of browns and earthy colours that make up a semi-abstract landscape scene. The contrasts in both use of colour and light create a deep and atmospheric painting.
