Frances Marsh, artist
“ Ever since I can remember, I have painted the space between, and the air around, the objects and figures in my portraits, landscapes and still-lifes. About twenty years ago, I turned to watercolour painting with a strong intention and desire to enter and explore more deeply the realms of colour, space and light. It was a conscious choice and commitment to leave behind me form as I had known it.
As I went deeper into the colours, allowing them to inform me, and in intuitively following their lead, I became aware of being guided by a consciousness far beyond my own, where the outcome was no longer a result of my own intention. As I surrendered more and more to this guidance, I experienced myself as painter and simultaneously as witness to the picture unfolding before my eyes, where something new and unexpected was always being revealed, and which, upon completion, seemed to carry a vibration and life-force of its own.
My hope is that those who pause and focus upon these pictures, may experience being drawn into the presence of a light energy field of endless possibility.”
Her work is now also available as giclee prints.

Light Reflections by Frances Marsh
An extraordinary body of work by Frances Marsh who paints the space between and the air around. she turned to watercolour painting with a strong intention and desire to enter and explore more deeply the realms of colour, space and light. It was a conscious choice to leave behind form as she had known it.
The result is pulsating light generated through a "veiling" technique, striking, moving and very powerful sensational work. The artworks effect the viewer, giving a sense of looking into eternal light. Frances' work projects you into other realms giving a high sense of undefined spirituality. Connective, communicative and with resonate qualities. Frances has produced some very exceptional work using a suprising medium. Watercolours as never seen before.
