In Wintery Afternoon, St Martin in the Fields, London, Susan Brown brings her signature architectural expressionism to one of the capital’s most recognisable ecclesiastical landmarks. The church’s Read more
neoclassical geometry—its portico, spire, and rhythmic colonnade—is reinterpreted through Brown’s dynamic mixed‑media technique, where washes of colour, splattered textures, and gestural linework evoke the shifting atmosphere of a cold London afternoon.
The scene balances structural clarity with painterly spontaneity: figures move across the foreground, softened by winter light, while the surrounding urban fabric dissolves into expressive marks. Brown’s ability to capture both the grandeur of historic architecture and the immediacy of lived city experience is central to her practice, and this work exemplifies that duality with particular elegance.
Susan Brown is widely collected for her semi‑abstract urban landscapes, which transform familiar British cityscapes into vibrant, emotionally resonant compositions. Her work is regularly exhibited through Red Rag Gallery and other UK venues.
