About The Artist
W E L C O M E
Welcome to the art studio of Georgina Hoby Scutt in Nelson, New Zealand.
Born and raised in Nelson; after study, life abroad and having three children, Georgina began painting in 2016. Informed by her print & pattern design background, Georgina develops distinctive colour palettes and paints with gestural, expressive brushstrokes. Georgina considers herself primarily a Colourist. Her work is loosely figurative, lightly abstracted and fundamentally joyful..
ARTIST STATEMENT
“I studied print design in London and then spent five years in Barcelona working as a freelance textile designer. This was a pivotal time for me in terms of developing a sense of my own artistic direction, style and colour palettes.
I am influenced by abstract expressionism (William DeKooning, Franz Kline), gesturalism and the Fauves (Matisse, Cezanne, Gaugin) and Mid-Century British art (Ivon Hitchens, Mary Fedden); contemporary fashion and interiors.
For me, the creative process is intuitive, exploratory, challenging and hugely joyful."
