Glynnis Carter’s paintings are a response to, rather than a representation of, landscape. Inspired by the colour and structure of rock formations, hills and moorland, and by constantly changing light and weather conditions, her work has developed from an experimental approach to making paintings. Although her paintings are not made from studies of specific locations, the influence of the huge landscapes of the North Pennines where she lives and, following a trip to America last year, the dramatic canyons of Southern Utah and Northern Arizona, is evident in the work.
