Art for Evensong has travelled to The Cathedral Church of St German in Peel on the Isle of Man, and will remain there until 12 June 2013 For more detailed images of the banners please go to http://ruthdent.com/artforevensong.php

 

Inspired by music, literature and poetry I create bold and expressive abstract prints and paintings.

Using gestural marks to represent key aspects of the piece and to express my feelings, I usually start with charcoal and paper. An image is then built up in layers, combining marks and creating meaning. Then come the colours, first imagined and then mixed - that for me is real magic.

I enjoy pouring paints so they run together to give unexpected and exciting results. In contrast, when printmaking there is the choice of controlling or varying the process.

Want to know more about how I work, see finished work first and hear the stories?
