"... nature is endlessly rich in beauty and meaning"
Bella Bigsby
Bella Bigsby is an artist working in oils. Having lived and exhibited her work in California for many years, she recently returned home to Norfolk, where she grew up. She is based in Norwich and exhibits her original paintings and fine art reproductions at many locations in Norfolk and Suffolk as well as continuing to show work in the U.S.
In her nature inspired paintings, Bella combines tangible elements of the world around her with her memories of landscape and home, along with a love of myth and fairytale. She is interested in the details of things, their textures, in how the place in which you grow up shapes the person you are. It becomes, she says, an internalized landscape, like the shape of a familiar tree. To her nature is endlessly rich in beauty and meaning.
