Hello I Have Moved
In May I moved from my lovely cottage in Upwey which is a village on the busy coast route to Weymouth.
I have now moved inland to a quiet Dorset village at the edge of a forest and heathland. It really is a Thomas Hardy village far from the madding crowds.
I’ll soon have a studio to work in though for now I’m having to make do with the kitchen table so I've been getting on with these small paintings. Having felt very disrupted during the move, stressed is an understatement! I wasn’t sure where to start with a new series of paintings so for now I have been re visiting my old haunts by inventing mostly from memory.
Purbeck and Cornwall are places which I am still so connected to, so there is obviously a certain amount of nostalgia in reworking a subject that I have so much love for, some of the happiest times in my life. The best memories of my beautiful dogs, great friendships and at last feeling totally at one with my surroundings, it was a time of great freedom.
It will take me time to absorb my new surroundings, I can’t be rushed and anyway I still have much disruption for the next few months whilst the studio is being built.
I am very happy with my new cottage, I love the peace and quiet here.
I'll keep you all posted.

Teresa Lawton 2019
My paintings are invented from my dreams and observations all mixed up together. I have an endless curiosity about the landscape and nature, I walk every day and I never tier of the countryside. With paint I can create my version of what bits and pieces I see and put them together. Often my work is abstracted to an extreme, I experiment by working up the surface of my canvas with layers of oil paint which can make for either a dark intense painting or I can lighten my pallet up creating shapes and shadows within clear and open space.
Early on this year the hills, fields, forests and woodlands looked so beautiful that I felt I wanted to open the work up and have more narrative, to delve into the landscape a bit more and pick it apart. I work instinctively, often inventing as I go, so I don’t set myself any boundaries. The trees have been a great source of inspiration and I have brought them into my work in stark stylised shapes. Walking is a good start to my working day, it gives me a structure to start from. My thoughts each day will set the mood of the painting. This years paintings are very still and quiet, honed down and minimal at times.
