Penny Lindop

Penny’s art career began when she sold her greeting card business in 2019. She works in a loose expressive, semi abstract fashion in watercolour and mixed media. Her work is inspired by the local valley fen landscape, flowers and natural forms. She lives on the Norfolk/Suffolk border and spends much time walking either on the fens, or in her local woodlands, absorbing colour, form, light.

The small elements in nature, the flowing grasses, the tiny wild flowers on their delicate stems, the stones, pebbles, lost feathers and fallen twigs draw her in, and it is these that inform much of her work.

It was the small details that were important to her as an archaeologist many years ago, and now it’s the snippets of memories and detail, along with the breadth of the landscape, that call her.
