LIZ JAMES ART

Contemporary British 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 and acrylic I like to experiment by incorporating other materials and mediums often using charcoal, pastel, pencil and sand to enhance my paintings.

​

The beautiful Norfolk landscape is the main inspiration for my artistic practice, in particular the beautiful coast around Cromer where I live. I love the 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 MA in Fine Art at the Norwich University of the Arts in 2009.
