'EVERYTHING IN THE UNIVERSE IS WITHIN YOU'. Rumi.

Diane began painting at the age of 64. She is self taught and her work has developed through a process of intense and consistent practice and experimentation. She resonates with landscapes which, for her, evoke connection with the essence and meaning of life. She paints from imagination and the images emerge from free exploration and are discovered and refined only in the later stages of the painting. Her work aligns with an interest in eastern philosophy and a sense of the sacred .She wishes to express something which is beyond words and deeply felt and to create atmospheric images as a focus for contemplation and she is open to wherever this process takes her.


Diane is a regular exhibitor at The Art Yard Gallery, Cradley Heath B64 5HX and she is a member of RBSA Friends and the Midland Painting Group. She worked for many years as a psychotherapist and has a deep love for music, art, literature and nature.
