All Artists
Abigail McDougall
Abigail graduated from Falmouth college of art in 2005 and started her art career in Bristol, where she worked from Jamaica Street studios. She has exhibited widely in the U.K. and internationally, including the Royal West of England Academy, where she had her first solo show, “Art for Sustainable Transport”.
Watercolour is the perfect medium for painting water, because the artist works with the fluidity of the paint and the spontaneity of the flow. Abigail’s lucid depiction of light and shape evoke a feeling of simultaneous movement and serenity. Her travels and subjects have taken her to the botanical gardens at Kew, Cornwall and Morocco, waterfalls in Wales and the sinkholes and mangroves of Mexico, rockscapes in Greece and the South-West coast of the UK.
These new paintings are an artist’s attempt to capture an essence of our true nature, the light and colour of existence, a deep respect for water and a gentle whisper to those who are touched by them to come home.
