Edge of the Earth is an original abstract landscape painting by Janet Keith. The painting is expressive and painted with vigorous brushstrokes.It is dark but bright, atmospheric and dramatic. It is not a depiction of any particular place but developed organically with one mark leading to another.

Kelly Washbourne, contemporary painter, available online and in our gallery at Wychwood Art. Kelly Washbourne’s work is of immeasurable depth, texture and colour. Every canvas represents its own journey as paint is layered and balanced to create exquisite colour relationships, provoking both thought and emotion. Taking months to complete, each piece becomes an evolving record of the painting process offering glimpses into the hidden history of its creation.
