About the Item

High Speed 1is an Original Painting by Eleanor Woolley. This painting is inspired by images of speeding trains and blurred figures. The Artist's love of shadows and light is pictured here in bright and descriptive brush marks. The painting depicts a train terminal, the Artists uses Bokeh, the Japanese term for hazy images. There is motion and fluidity in the mark making and the subject matter, the shadows give great depth and perspective. The lovely rich cadmium red, yellows and deep blues contrast with each other to make a bold statement.

Her first true love for painting came from an inspirational Art teacher at Haberdashers Monmouth School for Girls where she started painting in Oils at thirteen years old. Here she learnt to paint using classic oil painting techniques, and was drawn to the figure from early life drawing lessons. During this period she was fortunate enough to work under Mary Fedden in her studio and with Portrait Sculptor Peter Lambda with whom she further developed her technique and composition. After gaining her BA Hons in Sculpture at Leeds University Eleanor travelled for some time in Asia before coming home to study Furniture making. Eleanor worked as a Cabinet maker and a Restorer before returning to Fine Art painting. Eleanor’s inspiration is taken from her surroundings where she has a love for the every day things, often passed by without a second thought. Eleanor’s paintings are vibrant, often painted Plein air and finished in the studio. Starting with bold outlines, many layers of paint are used to create the depth of colour. Her paintings are spontaneous, using washes of oil to create the desired form. Often finishing with a palette knife producing a pleasing texture. Her current work is inspired by the landscape of the Cotswolds, and contrasted with long shadows created by figures in urban landscapes.
