| Trudy Ruane - Contemporary
Artist. |
| Originally a Fine Art graduate
from St Martins school of Art, London and more recently studying
for an MA in Art History at University College Falmouth, Trudy's
work as an artist has been complemented with that of Interior
Design, having worked primarily as a designer for twenty years. Now living in Cornwall as a working artist she draws her inspiration from the year round beauty of her home county.................. |
| "Weaving a fusion of materials
onto the canvas I want my paintings to relay the often forgotten
textures and colours which lay beneath the obvious scenery.
A wild and blustery day on the beach highlights colours normally
overlooked. Wind battered hedgerows and rain drenched footpaths
often harbour forms invisible to the casual passer by." |
| As a result of gathering beach
debris, naturally decaying materials from the countryside and
rubbish tips, recycling items others discard, Trudy unites together
colour and texture into a new abstract beauty. Capturing the
essence of what makes Cornwall such a unique and beautiful place
to live. |
| "My works,
often with sculptural elements, portray my vision of the natural
forms, textures and colour I have been fortunate enough to observe
throughout my life. Passionate about art from an early age and
in particular the vitality and vibrancy of artists such as Rauschenberg,
Rothko, Pollock and Gerhard Richter, I want my paintings to evoke in the viewer a memory, a feeling, a day, a time......................... A MOMENT. |
