Art by Amanda HOSKIN
Godrevy Island in the Silver Light British Art and Artists at Red Rag Gallery Amanda Hoskin was born and grew up in Cornwall. She was educated at Tremough Convent and then she studied at Falmouth and Chelsea Colleges of Art and Cornwall College. After finishing art school Amanda became a freelance wildlife illustrator working and living in London. She began to miss Cornwall and so in the early 90s moved back to Cornwall and worked as a sailing instructor in the summer months and travelled in the winter. The move prompted Amanda's interest and passion for painting Landscapes. This passion expanded and grew as she continued to produce paintings, and further developed when Hoskin started using watercolours instead of oil paints. This allowed her to paint using different techniques and in many ways paint in more impressionistic styles. Amanda Hoskin focuses her interest on painting skies and landscapes paying close attention to detail of light particularly when it falls on open water. Amanda specialises in painting Cornish landscapes, and seaside views due to her great love and understanding for the nature that she surrounds herself with. Amanda spends many hours walking through the countryside allowing herself to observe and experience vistas on every level. It is because of her engagement with the environment that she is able to render her scenes with such enchantment and beauty. Her knowledge is shown through her effective ways of painting light and foliage, sometimes shown calm and tranquil, and sometimes weathered and rustic. It is clear that Amanda provides the viewer with a painting full of depth, charm and intellect, creating a vision of familiarity to anyone native of Cornwall. Talking about her paintings Amanda says: 'I am an artist who is very much influenced by the Cornish landscape that surrounds me. Living and working in Cornwall is my greatest inspiration. Whenever I find painting difficult or struggle to find inspiration I grab my sketchbook, go for a long walk and find that my ideas come flowing. My sketchbooks are where my paintings start whether it is a quick watercolour, a line drawing or even a written note to myself to remind me later of my feelings and thoughts. Working outside with an instant style, painting is a constant challenge, ever changing, wonderful and sometimes frustrating - but I love it!' Today Amanda Hoskin is one of the leading British artists specialising in modern impressionism of the Cornish landscape. She paints outdoors, in the tradition of impressionists, skilfully capturing the momentary and transient effects of light. Her paintings are regularly featured in Red Rag art exhibitions.
