paintings
“Inspired by the beauty that surrounds me I paint the elements, not as a literal representation but as they come through me as a metaphor. My style is painted both finely with brushes and roughly with palette knives to bring a balance that duality requires to achieve a whole and this technique creates an atmospheric presence that reflects in the title. My work sensitively adheres to the gestures of the colour as I work with combinations that bring an emotional response from the viewer”.
Ursula’s oil paintings lean toward minimalism and her theme at the moment is ‘The Elements’ latterly working with Air. Her paintings fall into the genre of abstract landscape or inner landscape deeply worked through using brushes and palette knives.
