Tess Dunlop

Tess Dunlop is a self-taught Scottish Artist who paints from her home studio in Edinburgh. Her artwork is in private collections across in the UK, Europe, the United States and the Far East and has also been published in a number of art magazines.
In her work, she strives to capture the play of light across a diverse range of subjects including seascapes, landscapes, bridges and boats.
In her own words, she says, “When I’m in front of a canvas, I’m excited by the process of mark-making, the brush strokes, paint flow and the light and shade and create my pieces with a loose plan … but the actual work evolves before me as I trust the instinctive and spontaneous process that takes over when I have a brush in my hand”
“I love to paint on coloured canvas and for many years this was always a mid-toned cadmium red. More recently, the canvas has been cobalt blue, black or orange – depending on the subject and what I want the finished piece to say. Sometimes I use a broken colour technique to allow considered areas of the under-painted canvas or earlier layers of paint to show through. This technique enables the colours to appear to shimmer or vibrate against each other, giving each piece a warm, vibrant and exciting quality . I enjoy playing around with light and shade and lost and found edges too.”
