Marches Makers Festival Artist 2021
Lois Hopwood
My Landscapes begin in sketch books, I use a projector to make the big 4’ x 8 drawings in the studio on lining paper with pen and ink. The oil paintings on gesso evolve through washes of oil paint and sanding back until everything is working at the same pitch. Recently I have been working on big canvases in oils in Paynes grey.
These three post card sized landscapes are part of a larger series looking at horizons, hedge lines to create field shapes and often inform the large canvases.
