Modern British Art

Artist: Elaine Fine

Painting: Stormy Clouds over Elie Beach, Fife

Elie Beach is on the East Neuk of Fife. ''Neuk'' is an old Scots word for corner and East Neuk is the area around the east peninsula of Fife in Scotland. It is an area of dramatic scenery and long stretches of golden beach and wide open sky. Elaine Fine shows us the space and wildness of the landscape in ''Stormy Clouds over Elie Beach, Fife''.

Elaine Fine uses traditional methods of oil painting, occasionally experimenting with mixed media using acrylic, pastel, gouache, watercolour and collage expressing her emotional response to her subject through bold brushstrokes. Elaine Fine has become increasingly interested in colour and has been influenced by the work of Cezanne, Matisse and the Scottish Colourists.

Travels to Scotland have resulted in dramatic series of land and seascapes. An ongoing theme and love is water, this dates back to her childhood living on the River Thames. Her contemporary paintings may describe water in different contexts. Reflections, waterways, boats and harbours all feature.

Elaine Fine has enjoyed success at many solo and group modern art shows and her paintings are in many private collections. In addition to Red Rag Modern Art Gallery Elaine Fine has exhibited at other leading British Art Galleries. Each painting at Red Rag is sourced from the Elaine Fine artist studio and like all Red Rag British art and Modern art it can be shipped worldwide.
