About
Esther developed an interest in art whilst at school and she is mainly self taught having started experimenting with mixed media (paint & texture ) in her 20's, never realising where it would take her!
Her work encapsulates light and form through her use of oils and other mediums, which results in various textures. This is an aspect of her paintings which is unusual and creates something which is very special and unique.
For twelve years, Esther lived on the North Devon coast and her love affair with that coastline began as a child when she spent many family holidays staying at Bucks Mills.
The rugged beauty of this area and the stunning beaches further round the coast towards Saunton & Croyde greatly influenced her work in the early years.
Esther now lives in Budleigh Salterton in East Devon and feels very blessed to live in this area of outstanding natural beauty and enjoys immersing herself in the nature around her.
Her beautiful garden, has also been an inspiration for various paintings.
An exciting development is that she now has a new studio - Studio 36 - which is tucked away in the corner of the main garden, which has been many years in the waiting.
There will be new work coming later on in the year.
