Georgia Morley - Abstract Seascape Artist
Abstract painter of wild seas and remote landscapes, art inspired by travel and sustainability.
After graduating from Falmouth University with a degree in design niching in sustainability, Georgia decided to research ways of creating art with as little impact on the planet as possible. This involves using homemade paints that don’t have any toxic ingredients in that harm our waterways when cleaning up in the sink, natural inks using pigments foraged locally from plants and using recycled surfaces to paint on or discarded board offcuts that would otherwise go to landfill.
A focus on the energy of Devon, Cornwall and the sea is the inspiration behind her abstract paintings rather than specific shapes with in the rocks and cliffs. She allows her emotion to rule her paint brush as the paintings come to life with strong blues and turquoises having a strong role to play.
Georgia has taken her research into sustainable art to Central and South America and now Asia, to explore natural pigments found there and to understand the role art plays in different cultures. Starting in Mexico and making her way down to Patagonia, Georgia is documenting, exploring and collaborating with different artists and organisations out there. Meanwhile, her work is being sold at different galleries in the UK.
