About the Item

Francesca Owen is an award winning contemporary fine art painter and a former Slade graduate where she studied under some influential artists such as Dame Phyllida Barlow RA CBE, Andrew Stahl and with the help of the Euan Uglow Memorial Scholarship. Francesca’s journey has been interesting, with work submitted to the New English Art Club and the Hampstead Arts Society, she was selected out of over 900 applicants. At the beginning of the year, Tatler magazine selected her paintings in, ‘the Artist curates’, section of the January, February and March issues. Francesca has been shown at the Affordable Art Fair and her work was displayed on the Kings Road in central London. Now she is a proud member of the prestigious and historic St Ives Arts Society. It is her residency at Tremenheere Sculpture Park which has had great impact so far, spending a whole year painting in the garden culminated in her solo show, ‘The Triumph of Love’. “Surely everyone of us must have a temple- it could be yourself, your partner, children, home, garden, a place you revisit often? Anyway, I believe that we all have a temple, a solace, that is within or outside of us that we need to be with… And to me it exists in painting, in the making of it, the action of mixing the sticky stuff with thinners, applying it to canvas, conjuring up an image. It becomes something of a personal worship, between the love of the dearest things in my life and me and it comes out as paint so images of gardens, flowers and figures appear in these creations. In time, every painting becomes part of a collection of something bigger, like an Eden, and it’s made by me but to be taken away by you and it speaks of love….” Francesca Owen Oil on canvas in a beautiful bespoke frame, painted in an off white
