KATE RICHARDSON ARTIST
Get ready to embark on a visual voyage with Cowes very own artist, Kate Richardson, as she reimagines the world of sailing through her contemporary paintings.
Kate,s breathtaking artwork brings the power of the wind, the thrill of racing, and the serenity of a calm sea right on to your walls.
From vibrant regattas to tranquil harbour scenes, her paintings capture the heart & soul of sailing.Each brushstroke tells a story of adventure, challenge, the enduring love of the open sea.
Kate grew up with her family at the Elephant boatyard on the river Hamble.
Kate Richardson went onto study Sculpture at the City & Guilds of London Art School concentrating on form and movement, then moving onto painting primarily with acrylics. Kate’s inspiration is drawn from her family's love of sailing and racing around the Solent and beyond on their classic yacht Sabrina. And working from her studio in Cowes Kate enjoys the effects created by using bright colours which, if you look hard enough, can be seen all around us.
The paintings are established using a firm line and the colours are boldly and instinctively applied to the canvas to produce a textured surface giving a richness of depth, energy, and movement.
