Astrid’s Inspiration
A tin of sardines, a jug of mimosa, a few sunny lemons. These are some of the things I love to paint using gesso, dry pure pigments, collage and beeswax on panel. Sometimes still lifes and sometimes the tide going out at West Bay. Fish, lobsters and shellfish are my muse.
I like to capture those small, joyful moments. Dinner with friends, ready and set on the table. A vase full of freshly cut olive branches. Finds from a beach walk. A Mediterranean scene. If you’d like to commission a painting in my style, just contact me with an idea.
