“Bold & joyful…..”

Paula Sharples

Paula Sharples striking and richly coloured mixed media works are inspired by the landscapes that surround her; the North Norfolk Coast, Devon and Cornwall, and The Peak District. Working in layers of acrylic, inks and graphite she creates compositions of still life with land and seascape backgrounds, often reflected by her background in textile and ceramic design.
