Carrie McKenzie

Halifax, West Yorkshire

Born and brought up in the beautiful surroundings of Yorkshire, I am always amazed at the play of light and colour that completely changes the appearance of the environment, its people and wildlife. So many great artists have tried to capture the fascination of light in their work; it is, I think, one of the most transformational aspects of any painting, whether it be landscapes, people, nature or still life. I am constantly striving to reflect the impact of light and colour into my own artwork.

My artwork hovers towards impressionistic and contemporary, rather than photo-realism, as I continue to explore loose styles, which bring out the colour, light and atmosphere or mood of my subjects.

I exhibit at a number of galleries and venues across West Yorkshire and I'm delighted that my artwork has been selected for collections in UK, Europe, USA, Australia and New Zealand.
