Time for tea (2020) Painting by Angela Brittain

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.
