Fine art: contemporary landscape paintings
Paula Madden
"My work is a constant exploration of the language of painting. I've always preferred working outdoors in order to experience landscapes in a non-superficial way - taking in the seasonal changes of growth, cycles and light - seeking expression in actual places that enable me to play with pictorial space"
Paula Madden has been a professional artist since 1991, capturing and expressing landscapes from areas where she has lived and experienced the land including Scotland, France, Norway, Devon and Cornwall.
She is a graduate of Chelsea College of Art, and Kingston University, where she studied fine art in the late 1980s. She currently works as an artist in Gittisham, Devon, where she lives with her partner and their two children.
