Bee Doughty-Pratt

Bee paints full-​time - producing vibrant works in demand from galleries and buyers throughout the country. “Mostly I paint abstract seascapes and landscapes in oils and inks - on large canvases usually at least 1 meter square and often much larger. I work on several canvases at once, coming back to each one repeatedly to continue the layers over a period of weeks until each is complete.”

“Water in some form or other features in virtually every canvas I paint … river water, lake water, sea water - all abstract water. I am also all about colour. I love colour and try to use it to capture the feelings or emotions behind these ‘scapes - the essence of the seascapes and landscapes, real or imagined, rather than the actual detail.”
