Sylvia Wadsley

Standing at the edge of the sea, I am captivated by the distant horizon, vastness, space, endlessness and the possibility of setting off into the unknown. 

I paint atmospheric seascapes which aim to impart peace and serenity, calming the anxieties and complications of the times we live in.  My seascape work is for me a meditative form of painting in contrast to my landscape work which is often around environmental concerns.

 I love to observe, absorb, gather and collect at the edge of the sea.

My process involves wandering and wondering at the strangeness and beauty of the anima of the sea and it’s treasures washed up by the wealth of the tide. These glass sculptures try to capture something of the beauty, fragility, resilience and wonder of life within the waves.
