Lorraine Houston

Based in Cheltenham,  Lorraine graduated with a BA in Fine Art Sculpture and Ceramics from Portsmouth before completing an MA in Art Education in Birmingham.  Her distinctive oils and pastels are often painted in soft greys, blues and yellows with a strong architectural element.  She says of her work:
“My recent paintings are  a result of contemplation, observations and memories of my surroundings over a period of time.   I often find my inspiration in mundane subject matters I see on a daily basis like the surface of a roof, a window catch or chimney. As I work on the image I allow subliminal images and narratives to surface."
