a black and white photograph of the artist Sonia Barton painting in her artist studio“My paintings reflect thoughts, observations of everyday life and memories which are interwoven in each painting through the study of still life. Often explored through a muted colour palette, the juxtaposition of forms and shapes are emphasised with flattened perspective and a naïve distortion of objects. The objects are often ‘moved’ around the canvas, leaving traces of their previous existence in the form of embossed and textured shapes, etched lines and patterns. There is a feeling of time, an ebb and flow, which develops. Colours are initially applied with brushes, palette knives, rags and rollers. Many layers of paint are added, areas are scraped back, lines and marks appear and disappear. A certain ‘settling in’ of the subject with the surface takes place. My interest in aged, worn and worked surfaces both from interiors and the coastal environment are evident as strong influences.”

Cornish artist Sonia Barton gained a B.A. (Hons) in Fine Art at Staffordshire University, followed by a Post-Graduate Diploma in Fine Art Printmaking at Brighton University, gaining the highest grade of Honours. She was subsequently offered MA Fine Art places at Edinburgh and Central Schools of Art, London.

Sonia exhibits regularly throughout the UK including the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours Exhibition and Royal Scottish Academy exhibition. Her paintings are found in collections worldwide including America, Australia, Hong kong and across Europe.
