Hilary Turnbull
"I am interested in shape, colour, tone and texture and although I draw constantly
and take photographs, these images are for reference, the drawing is compulsive. It
is the bringing together of the parts into a satisfactory whole that interests me.
Memories of places visited, people met and conversations held will often spark an
idea. Sometimes I will pursue a particular shape because it allows me the freedom to
explore the endless possibilities of different colour combinations, the balancing of
large and small areas and the introduction of texture. My interest in mixed media
started about 4 years ago when studying the surface of rocks on the Cornish
coastline."
Hilary’s work is a sophisticated reflection of our everyday world. Her work is touched
with humour and deep consideration. Her combined choice of palette, texture and
design fires the imagination and leads the eye in exploration around the picture but it
is her restraint in the simplicity of her style that truly engages with the viewer,
permitting us the freedom to imprint our own memories and experiences.
Hilary exhibits nationally.
