Paul Zawadzki
As a contemporary landscape painter, I am based in Bungay and get immense inspiration from my love of the Waveney Valley, especially Outney Common and Bath Hills, as well as the uncompromising coastline at nearby Covehithe and Dunwich. My current output is centred around the aspects of cliff erosion on the Suffolk coast, from a personal perspective.
Mainly painting in oils on canvas, I also incorporate natural materials such as sand and earth in my work as I strive to capture the spirit of the landscape. There is also a love of spontaneity, embracing the 'happy accident' and making full use of dripping, blotting and splashing paint while retaining an element of traditional landscape painting.
Studying for an MA Fine Art at Norwich University of the Arts has expanded my creative potential - encouraging the investigation of using a variety of non-standard materials such as rust on steel and unprimed canvas. Synesthesia also features in my work (I see colours in sound and music) which helps me in my other role as an electronic music composer (recording under the name of ‘Sineflesh’) - the two sides of my practice support and influence each other.Recently I have opened my own art gallery and studio in Bungay which has over 50 artworks available for purchase. The gallery is at 24A Upper Olland Street, Bungay NR35 1BH. Message or ring to discuss a visit.
