Sonya Vine

Sonya has always been inspired by strong natural light and the way it can turn simple snapshots of day life into atmospheric images. With the universal pastime of people watching, she loves capturing figures lost in their own worlds, perhaps walking through a landscape or shaped as silhouettes that suggest a story. She tries to give the painting life with loose brushstrokes to give the sense that it’s a fleeting moment.

Sonya has had many exhibitions in London galleries and now she lives in Haslemere has had solo exhibitions in the area as well as being part of Surrey Open Artists Studios.
