Mandy Hudson is a painter based in Kent, working from her studio near the Thames Estuary. Mandy’s still life oil paintings are inspired by the accidental compositions of everyday objects, often second-hand finds from flea markets and car boot sales. Her paintings explore the interplay of texture, colour, and form, seeking to imbue ordinary items with a sense of history and new meaning. Through her art, she invites viewers to see the beauty and narrative potential in the overlooked and mundane.
Drawing inspiration from artists such as Gwen John, Leon Spilliaert, Sonia Delaunay, and Lee Krasner, Mandy’s paintings balance immediacy with deliberation, using a variety of surfaces to evoke both the tangible and the transformative.
She studied for her BA in illustration but her main interest has always been painting. Mandy has been included in The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize and Marmite Painting Prize. Recently she has most frequently been exhibiting at The Lido Stores, Margate.
"These are things seen at markets and junk shops. Groups of objects forming unplanned arrangements which I like for their abstract qualities and resonance of their second-hand history."
