About Phillippa Gunn Art

I am a contemporary artist born and bred in Suffolk. I originally trained as a hairdresser but, at the age of 28 I suffered a stroke due to having undiagnosed congenital heart disease. During my recovery, I found a passion for art. I would spend all my spare time researching and trying out different techniques. 10 years on, and my passion for painting has grown. I love to paint the English countryside using bright, bold, striking colours. My preferred medium is acrylic to capture depth and contrast, whilst using a very free, loose, fluid brush. Often adding a splatter art technique to encourage movement and layering.Read their story
