Camilla has spent most of her life surrounded by the beautiful Somerset countryside from the rolling hills to the calm expanses of the Somerset levels and her environment has always informed her paintings. She gained a BA Honours degree in Art History followed by an Interior Design Diploma, and both these disciplines have fed into her deep understanding of colour, shape and the academics of painting construction.

She has been a passionate full-time artist for over 20 years and over 10 years teaching and works primarily in Oils and Acrylics. A move to the dramatic South Hams coast in 2021 means the clarity of light and a completely different landscape has stimulated a new exciting phase where her paintings have become an expressive balance of abstract and figurative. The dynamic layers and flashes of colour create paintings full of coastal atmosphere.
