Anita Plume

Anita has a BA Honours Degree in Fine Art, studied at the St Ives School of Painting and is a member of the St Ives Society of Artists.

Living in the moorland village of St Breward, her inspiration comes from the surrounding countryside, particularly the woods, rivers and streams.

She loves to paint misty winter woods, clearings, secret places, sunlight through the trees, reflections on water and cathedral-like Gunnera plants evoking a feeling of mystery, atmosphere and mood.

Anita paints freely, often using mixed media to add texture. She tries tp create a mythical ethereal image that leads the viewer into a magical land perhaps once visited. Responding to her own experience of a landscape, Anita seeks to capture an intimate sense of place.
