Artists > Alexandra James - Carpenter
Alexandra holds a first class degree in Fine Art Painting
from Brighton University.
I have been painting for as long as I can remember. Coming
from an arty background it is intrinsic for me to paint and draw.
I have shown my paintings primarily in Brighton and London,
where I lived for 10 years.
Now living back in Cambridgeshire I paint in my back garden
studio.
Enjoying the paint and the process of painting, I make
vibrant and freely painted work with a fresh and contemporary feel.
Using a zingy colour pallet and playfully light subject
matters, I create paintings with a slight undercurrent, perhaps challenging the
viewer, igniting intrigue or a feeling in response.
