About
Deborah Plaskett
Intuitive Landscape and Nature Artist Based in Norfolk, UK
My work is about connection to nature and the land. A belief that we are a part of it, rather than apart from it.
I paint intuitively, creating imagined scenes inspired by the fens, fields and woodlands around my home, the wild creatures who inhabit them., and the mystical beings who might.
My paintings often include elements from nature, either used to create printed collage papers or to print directly onto the painting, and occasionally actually embedded within the layers.
I choose to be enchanted by the natural world, to stop and notice the beauty of small things, to feel the spirit of the landscape and the atmosphere of a moment. To observe and feel a connection to wild creatures, note the slow changes that mark the turning of the year's wheel and embrace the beauty of the countryside in all its moods. And I choose to be open to the possibilities of secret lives and things unseen - creatures of myth and legend, or merely those hidden by the night or beneath the surfaces of land and water.
My desire is to share a little bit of that sense of enchantment through my paintings.
