Gill Edwards is a painter, with a long career as a textile designer, and is inspired by the beauty of domestic ceramics- the small objects that share our life stories.

Colour, marks and shapes give Gill’s work a unique quality, and her paintings begin with explorations of mark making using tools rather than brushes, layering paint with trowels and scrapers and allowing pencils to carelessly dance across the surface.

Focussing on shapes, her discerning eyes gently mask certain areas of a painting, letting only the most beautiful parts stand out and shine: a poetic dance between objects and space.

Gill’s paintings are regularly shown in several UK galleries and are hanging in homes internationally.
