About Colette Baumback Artist
The beauty of nature is a constant source of wonder: From untamed hedgerows of the countryside to woodlands and flower gardens. Nature is my faithful muse and constant inspiration, the challenge to capture its essence and beauty is a never-ending task.
When creating my art my intention is to give the viewer the impression that they are in the location, and I often place grasses and flowers in the fore ground to give an exaggerated perspective.
I paint with a palette knife and the textural quality of my work is a key feature. The texture (impasto) also brings the painting to life and creates a structural quality to the work, giving a more three-dimensional feel.
Painting has always been a part of who I am, as a self-taught and have developed my own unique style. The process of painting and creating captivates me, allowing my emotional response to develop and fuse into the subject. I work with a palette knife, cloth and a variety of implements, exploring the structure of the subject, building up layers of paint, colour and texture. My art is a reflection of my fascination with the natural elements in our surroundings. I am inspired by the richness of colour and texture in the natural landscape. I am compelled to paint.
