Nothing Gold Can Stay

Liz James

Contemporary Landscape Painter

Based in North Norfolk I work in a free, expressive style to capture the atmosphere of a place and time rather than geographical detail. Primarily using watercolour, acrylic and more recently oils, I like to experiment by incorporating other materials and mediums often using charcoal, pastel, pencil and sand to enhance my paintings.​

 

The Norfolk landscape is the main inspiration for my artistic practice, in particular the beautiful coast and countryside around Cromer where I live.

I'm also inspired by way the weather and changing seasons mark the

passage of time and affect the mood of the sea, sky and landscape.

 

​I completed a BA Hons. in Fine Art in the 1980’s at Stourbridge in the West Midlands and, after several years working in marketing I returned to study

for an MA in Fine Art at the Norwich University of the Arts in 2009.
