Abigail McDougall - Giola Thassos 6
25 x 25 cm, watercolour on panel, 2020
Abigail McDougall
Abigail focuses on water, fragile ecosystems and rock formations, creating luminous and lush depictions of nature. She travels to collect reference material for her works and pushes the boundaries of watercolour by working large-scale, with specially prepared surfaces on board and a vivid colour palette. Chinese paintbrushes enable simplicity in mark-making as each stroke is a defining move that is not changed or corrected. Abigail is based in Bristol, Italy and the island of Thassos in Greece. She graduated from Falmouth College of Art in 2005.
