Bethany Holmes is an artist living and working in Essex. She's inspired by the shifting light, changes in temperature, and the ways colours interact. Colour is a path to be followed, and Holmes has a hyperawareness of the nuances, vibrations, and implications of a given palette. Bethany’s paintings are emotive battles that are about living, experience layered, and of simply being in the moment.

Holmes graduated from Nottingham Trent University with a BA in Textile Design and has been practicing as an artist since then.

"Each painting only becomes final once a ‘perfect imbalance’ is reached. Sometimes this happens in a matter of hours, in other cases several years, but every work is an equally loaded palimpsest of time."
