Biography
Angela Brittain, a contemporary British artist, finds fascination in people, observing the subtle shifts in mood, vulnerability, and unspoken communication expressed through body language. The humanness revealed in reflective moments or collaborative efforts serves as a poignant inspiration for her artistic endeavors. In Angela's creative process, lines of emotions and trails of togetherness converge, forming a composition both in her mind and on the canvas.
Each of Angela's works is an exploration of achieving the "rightness," a quest to solve complex, often self-imposed compositional challenges. Beneath the surface, there is a palpable tension that adds depth to her creations. Her preferred mediums are acrylics and oils, applied to board or canvas to bring her artistic visions to life.
Being an artist, Angela acknowledges the rollercoaster of emotions, experiencing moments of great happiness interwoven with periods of despair and self-doubt—a common trait among artists. To navigate these fluctuations, she engages in activities outside of her art, attending exhibitions, going on bike rides, or immersing herself in pursuits that offer respite from self-criticism and maintain a balanced perspective on her artistic endeavors.
Angela Brittain holds the distinction of being an elected member of the Society of Women Artists (SWA). Her artworks grace exhibitions in London with the Society of Women Artists, the Russell Gallery, and through her membership in the United Society of Artists. In the South of England, she exhibits as an elected member of the West Sussex Art Society and participates in Open Studios. Notable solo exhibitions include showcases at the Horsham Gallery in 2011 and the Horsham Museum and Art Gallery in 2013. Angela's artistic journey continues to unfold as she navigates the complexities of human connection and translates these nuances onto the canvas.

Biography
My father encouraging me to go to art school, despite most of my friends going into more cerebral careers. I’d like to say that being a painter was my goal but in those early days it was more about being able to earn money and do something I loved, so I became a graphic designer incorporating illustration wherever I could. I worked in London at first, later becoming freelance. I started to paint in the 90s and was included in the Sunday Times “Best of British Watercolour” competition. Encouraged by this success I increased my painting output until I was able to switch to painting full time.
My work as imaginary, figurative art with a strong narrative content.
This is my sixth year as a full time painter and my paintings are now starting to gain national attention and awards and some are in private collections in England and Italy.
Winner of the “the Artist” magazine and ROI Open Oil painting competition 2010, and the bronze prize at the United Society of Painters exhibition 2013.
I have taught art part-time at Syon School, followed by part-time organizer and tutor of the HNC design courses at Northampton and Amersham College 1989-91. I continue to run one-to-one workshops at my studio in West Sussex.
I am elected member of the United Society of Artists.
I exhibit in London, mainly through open competitions such as the Society of Women Artists, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Watercolour Society and through my membership of the United Society of Artists. I also exhibit in the South of England as an elected member of the West Sussex Art Society and at Open Studios.
The Horsham Gallery had a solo exhibition of my work in 2011 and Horsham Museum and Art Gallery
in 2013.
For me, being an artist can be a rollercoaster of great happiness with periods of despair and self-doubt. As this seems to be a common trait for artists I try to mitigate these feelings by doing other things – going to an art exhibition, a bike ride or doing something that stops me being so hard on myself and keeps my endeavours in proportion.
