Blue geranium on yellow table

A still life study in colour and shape on A3 recycled card.

This piece was made using a combination of painting and collage on recycled paper and cardboard. It is a somewhat fiddly process and takes a couple of days to complete each piece.
Finished with a protective satin coating.

Mary Fedden, Milton Avery, Cressida Campbell, William Scott and Margaret Preston are some of my influences. I find myself constantly turning to their work to guide me when I feel stuck or in need of a recharge.

DOES NOT INCLUDE FRAME

This piece will be shipped flat between two pieces of rigid cardboard.

It may be available as a print in the future

My name is Bianca Harrington and I’m a multi-disciplinary maker and artist

My creative breadth spans painting, textile printing, collage, sewing, and accessory design.

I moved to London in my 20’s, where I studied and worked in textiles, prior to painting.

Now merging scissors with paintbrush, I work mostly in mixed media collage.

My immediate surroundings will be absorbed (quilts, documentaries, conversations, gardening etc.) turning them into background motifs, marks and symbols in my work.

Recurring themes in my work portray simplified tablescapes and botanicals with threads of folk symbolism and celestial impressions.
Small marks and imperfect shapes, aesthetic gestures of the lived experience.
My lifetime of dedication to creative disciplines contribute to the narrative of my work, producing my own distinctive and ever-experimental articulation of contemporary art and design.
