Bluebells in Hampstead Heath

As the air is warming up for summer the elusive bluebell comes out to play, creating a carpet of delicious shades of blue. It is lovely to walk in the stunning bluebell woods in Hampstead Heath, London, and the woodlands look magical when covered in a pretty cobalt carpet of beautiful blue flowers.

By building up many layers of texture and colour, using brushes and palette knives, Angelika creates a rich surface and vibrant relationships between random shapes and deliberate markings in her work. She also uses charcoal and oil pastels to heighten the botanical impressions and create depth and movement in her paintings. The drips in Angelika’s work illustrate the endless cycle of growth and decay in organic structures, which again is a reflection of life itself.
