“I was under-prepared for the emotion I would experience when the person appeared in my strokes of oil paint in this work.

This is an important portrait in my career as a portrait artist and one I am proud to have exhibited as part of the 2022 SWA annual exhibition”

Paula Mitchell was thrilled to have her work selected following the initial application and pre-selection process. As a female artist, she has a developing career in portrait painting so her participation in this years SWA exhibition for the first time really is a great honour.

Paula has exhibited with the Royal Society of British Artists in 2021, receiving two society awards for her work Solent Sparkle. Limited edition prints are available of this work.

Her work as a marine painter and seascape artist has also led to her status as an exhibiting artist with the Royal Society of Marine Artists in 2021 and 2022. View article detailing the work Paula will have on display at this years RSMA 2022 Annual Exhibition at Mall Galleries.
