Kathryn Matthews

“I originally became fascinated with the shapes and vibrancy of harbours whilst painting in my portside studio in Rotterdam many years ago. These days, my interest has extended to all things coastal. I work and live on Shoreham Beach with my family and am lucky to be able to combine my love of travelling and painting.

I draw whilst out and about and use this as a framework for my pictures. It is usually what’s left out of these drawings, however, that creates the interest. Having to rely on fragments of memory, allowing compositions to be infused by reminiscence. The painting takes on a life of its own and often has many reincarnations before it reaches its end.”
