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

Diane began painting for the first time at the age of 64. She is self taught and her work is developing through a process of consistent practice and experimentation. She paints from imagination. 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 mysticism, 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. 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.
