FELICITY JOY STARR
Hello and thank you for taking a look at my website! I am an energetic representational artist (I try to paint in a realistic fashion with spirit), working in oil paints and inspired by beautiful things, especially nature.
I am largely a self taught artist with my best teacher being the great outdoors. Nature is always showing me new ways to appreciate and observe life which in turn I try to document. My work tries to demonstrate the inspiring connection and response to my surroundings. I strive to create paintings which celebrate life and excite the soul. My goal is for people to feel good when looking at my paintings!
Based in Hampshire, I paint both "en plein air" and in my Studio. One of my Art heros, David Shevlino, described my style best; "Felicity has a very straightforward way of painting her subjects. Her vision is infused with both uniqueness and exuberance."
I am super proud to have exhibited with the Royal Society of British Artists, The Royal Society of Marine Artists and the Society of Wildlife Artists, exhibitions held at the Mall Galleries, London.
