Georgina Potter is a contemporary landscape artist who is fast becoming one of Britain’s leading en plein air painters. Celebrated for her unique and highly energetic style, Georgina’s paintings are a celebration of the joy of the landscape. Georgina finds an ethereal beauty in nature, from a glimpsed ray of sunlight after the rain to the fierce drama of a sky before the sun slips below the horizon. Through painting Georgina captures the essence of Britain’s diverse landscapes. With her deft brushwork and keen eye for detail, she unveils the poetic beauty of rolling hills, tranquil meadows, and rugged coastlines.

Inspired by great British mid-century artists, including Sir Alfred Munnings and Edward Seago, Georgina embraces her passion for capturing the beauty of the natural world. Her work gracefully portrays fleeting moments in a distinctive, joyful manner.

Georgina’s skill lies in her ability to infuse her canvases with the ever-changing moods of the British climate. Her landscapes seem to breathe with life as sunlight dances through the trees, and misty rain veils distant horizons. Her works evoke a profound sense of connection to the land, inviting us to contemplate the timeless allure of nature.

Georgina Potter instinctively works directly from life en plein air on smaller boards and later translates her studies into larger paintings in her studio. All her works are from a specific location, some painted directly and some from memory. Potter is inspired principally by changing light, she uses her paints quickly making loose marks, to maintain the energy and expression throughout each canvas. She makes fast and decisive marks on the canvas, keeping mark making as lively and energetic as the weather itself.

“I try to make every brush stroke matter so that I can be economical with detail, and I frequently rub areas out and start again. My sketchbook is a strong part of my process, which I use to work out good compositions, ideas and colour studies for future paintings...”
