Biography
She is based in Wiltshire, surrounded by and inspired by the countryside and its inhabitants. Vicky’s style of plain contemporary backgrounds allows the viewer to place their own take on the animals ( and people) that she paints, removing them from their traditional environments, as often is depicted. This compliments the highly detailed focus of all manner of animals, including the beautiful fox hound packs which are based in the surrounding counties. As with portraits of people, she tries to capture and portray the essence and unique character of each animal in her work.
Vicky has been drawing or painting for most of her life and trained at Bristol and Salisbury before pursuing a career as a graphic designer. The arrival of two small girls and their move to an idyllic hamlet in Wiltshire inspired her to start painting full time. Winner of the prestigious Trilogy Award from the Society of Women Artists in 2016. She has exhibited extensively around London and the South of England with an extensive list of collectors including Lady Judith McAlpine, Alan Titchmarsh and Mary Berry.
