About the Item

Mawgan Porth Shadows is an Original Painting by Eleanor Woolley. This painting is inspired by the Artist's summer vacations around Cornwall. Mawgan Porth is just a stones throw from Newquay and is a beautiful beach to avoid the summer crowds. The sky is an idyllic clear blue, the sea cutting through it with flashes of waves breaking the shore. The headland can be seen jutting out infant of the sea. The beach is inhabited by bathers, all going about their business, splashing, digging. Lovely wind breaks stripe the beach, which is a lovely peachy colour. Size: mage size: Height: 30cm (11.81 in) Width: 30cm (11.81 in) Complete size of unframed painting Height: 30cm (11.81 in) Width: 30cm (11.81 in) Depth: 2cm (0.79 in) Artist's Biography: Eleanor Woolley was born on the Island of Jersey, and moved to Gloucestershire where she was drawn to the outdoors, always taking walks in the landscape. Her first true love for painting came from an inspirational Art teacher at Haberdashers Monmouth School for Girls where she started painting in Oils at thirteen years old. Here she learnt to paint using classic oil painting techniques, and was drawn to the figure from early life drawing lessons. During this period she was fortunate enough to work under Mary Fedden in her studio and with Portrait Sculptor Peter Lambda with whom she further developed her technique and composition. After gaining her BA Hons in Sculpture at Leeds University Eleanor travelled for some time in Asia before coming home to study Furniture making. Eleanor worked as a Cabinet maker and a Restorer before returning to Fine Art painting. Eleanor’s inspiration is taken from her surroundings where she has a love for the every day things, often passed by without a second thought. Eleanor’s paintings are vibrant, often painted Plein air and finished in the studio. Starting with bold outlines, many layers of paint are used to create the depth of colour. Her paintings are spontaneous, using washes of oil to create the desired form. Often finishing with a palette knife producing a pleasing texture. Her current work is inspired by the landscape of the Cotswolds, and contrasted with long shadows created by figures in urban landscapes.
