answering the question?
“How do artists channel emotion into their work?”

Sue Harragin
“Colour directs my work into the unexpected and pushes a painting into areas of bolder expression. It’s a reflection of a memory, moments in time, a place and a response to my surroundings.”

Catherine Morris
“Colour is why I paint!
Recently I’ve worked with a limited palette, experimenting with combinations that capture the landscape and its mood.”

Sophie Velzian
“Capturing the raw experienced colour in the landscape makes my soul come alive. Adding an unexpected colour to recreate being in that place, in that moment, of being alive.”
sėntinėl speaks to our role as guardians of the natural world — holding space for its strength, fragility, and resilience.
