ART VOX with Rebecca Wilson

Judith Brenner is an English painter who works with the themes of alchemy.  Using metal powders and experimenting with other materials on canvas, her works evolve and change as a matter of chemistry and they reflect the energy of various environments and landscapes that inspire her.  If you’d like to see her work, visit judithbrenner.com or pop in to an open day at Wimbledon Studios in London.  She’ll be at the Wimbledon Art Fair 15-18 November and is also exhibiting her life drawing works in a show with Anneka Rice from Nov 27 –  Dec 8 at the OSO Arts Centre in Barnes London .
