About Me |

Acrylic on canvas. 12x12" © Natasha Newton 2007 SOLD The Pattern Of The Earth 4. Acrylic on canvas. 12x12" © Natasha Newton 2008 SOLD Dark Forest. Acrylic on canvas. 30x24" © Natasha Newton 2005 Not For Sale (Artist's Own Collection) Suffolk Skies. Acrylic on canvas. 30x20" © Natasha Newton 2005 SOLD (Commission) Detail from 'Quiescent Landscape'. © Natasha Newton 2008 All work is © Natasha Newton. Please do not use my artwork without my permission. :: :: :: :: :: I'm a professional artist living and working in England. I exhibit my work at galleries in Suffolk and London and also via the internet. I rarely paint ‘real’ scenes, but create my landscapes using a combination of elements from photographs I have taken, scenes from my imagination, or remembered landscapes, which gives them a kind of fairytale or dreamlike quality at times. The artists my work is most often compared to are Maurice Sendak and Edward Gorey. To find out more about me, please read the biography section of my website (see link below). I have recently been interviewed for the deviantART website, www.neosynthesis.net, and featured on www.creepmachine.com. At the end of 2007 my artwork was used for Amit Erez's self-titled CD album. If you would like a copy of my price list or would like to know which pieces of work are currently available for sale, please contact me and I will happily answer your questions. I frequently work to commission.

I am now also busier than ever working on shows, commissions and projects. But I want you to know that I appreciate every message of support, and will try to reply to as many people as I can. So please don't be offended if I can't reply to you, and accept my apologies. |
