Pip Davey
Directly influenced by the journeys I take, my work transforms reality into immersive sensual studies of ambiguity and illusion. I am predominantly an oil painter working in the tradition of building upon many layers.
My work is characterised by a deep interest in the forms of the natural world, its subtle play of light, shade and depth of field, with the intent of creating a visual push and pull that is further accentuated by a rich and saturated colour palette.
In recent years I have also been exploring the relationship between abstraction and ornamentation. Sumptuous texture is created through the incorporation of oil paint, 23ct gold leaf, beeswax, mica chips, pearlescent and metallic pigments. The process is meticulously layered and then left to dry for many weeks.
Exhibiting regulary, work can be viewed either via the website, or by appointment at my studio.
