British art: artist Tina Morgan

Today’s featured British Artist is from the West Country. Tina Morgan was born in the British seaside village of Lynton in 1952. After studying art and design in Cornwall Tina went to work as an Art Director. During this time she won many awards including two at the Cannes Film Festival.

In 1985 Tina Morgan decided to change career direction and began painting as a full time professional artist. Since then Tina has exhibited her art work widely and today she has established herself as an artist with a reputation for capturing the light and the lazy day holiday buzz of people relaxing on the south Devon beaches. Her softness of palette and great skill in observing and depicting people creates art work with a timeless quality.

Tina Morgan art works are primarily oil on canvas. Talking about her paintings Tina says: ‘ I use oil paint because the colour and textures are so rich. I develop the background and paint onto that with a knife for texture. Long springy brushes are used for the detail. The memory of a scene has always been far more interesting than the impression viewed on the day. So I capture the moment with a pastel or pencil sketch and photographs, then spend a long time just observing the view
