Description
Charlotte has a fascination with pattern, interpreting it in a playful and illustrative way. Shapes are refined into a subtle pattern and there is an ornamental flatness. Still life objects are a celebration of rich decoration. A love of drawing from observation with an energetic and expressive line defines the work. The compositions and use of space have a sense of stillness and simplicity. The contrast between abundance and a pared-back approach is a constant theme.
Inspiration comes from outsider and folk art, the spontaneous and directness of children’s art, museum collections, the interiors of historic houses and the garden.
