“Recent paintings explore the theme of dining. I am interested in trying to convey the excitement and feeling of the subject. I want to capture the ambience of a dinner party after which all the guests are happy and relaxed. The different angles of the ellipses and overlapping shapes represent the movement of time throughout the evening, after which you are left with empty vessels and satisfied friends.”
Sara Huxley-Edwards’ paintings have been exhibited in a number of galleries in the Midlands, at Art in Action, Oxford, and at the Affordable Art Fair, London. |
