Painting the Wild: Colour, Emotion & Connection
Talk by Chantelle Watson – Contemporary Landscape Artist and Surrey Artist of the Year 2025 Finalist
Join self-taught artist Chantelle Watson, one of Surrey’s most talented artists, as she shares the stories behind her canvases. A heartfelt conversation about her creative journey of expressive contemporary landscape and seascape painting. With a deep spiritual connection to the natural world, Chantelle explores the raw beauty of ever-changing landscapes. Her work isn’t just about what she sees—it’s about what and how she feels. She paints with intuition, emotion, and a tactile connection to her materials—favouring palette knives and even her fingers to create raw, textured, soulful works that explore the emotional and spiritual bond we share with the land.
