Shooting Stars by Angela Harding Art Greeting Card

Angela Harding studied Fine Art Printmaking and painting at Leicester Polytechnic followed by an MA in Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University. The recurring inspiration for Angela's work is the flora and fauna of the British countryside. Her studio looks out over the farmland landscape of Rutland. Fields of sheep and the soft greens, greys and blues of this land form the backdrop for her paintings and prints. Angela does not strive for a literal portrait but attempts to capture the mood and atmosphere of her surroundings. There is an allegorical aspect which references British painting of the 30s, 40s and 50s and artists such as Eric Ravillious, David Jones, and Winifred Nicholson.
