Jane Coxhill
“In nature and the language of the sense The anchor of my purest thoughts, the nurse, The guide, the guardian of my heart, and soul of all my moral being” (Wordsworth 1798) This human relationship with the landscape as described by William Wordsworth (1770-1850), has been explored by artists throughout history, and this tradition continues to the present day. I am influenced by Paul Nash and the Neo-romantics; their connection, to the English landscape traditions and their desire to remain firmly within the contemporary practices of their day. I have delved into the very essence of place, essentially Dorset, my home, and my reactions to it; looking, internalizing and interpreting it through painting. I make choices of colour and mark making to allude to what I see and feel. I studied with the Open College of the Arts and gained a First Class Honors Degree in Painting.
