Hello, I am Ailsa, an abstract artist based in Gosport, Hampshire.

My work is inspired by the changing landscapes near the coast, old boats, beaches, plants, skies, and the beauty found in unexpected places.

Using what ever I have to hand, I create layered, textured paintings that explore ideas of change, the temporary nature of life, and emotional connections.

I’m interested in how art can help us slow down, notice more, and reconnect with ourselves and nature. Through colour, texture, and the creative process, my paintings aim to bring a sense of calm.
