Wendy Satchwell's painting style and method is instantly recognisable and in her own words is a "Colour Alchemist", using textures and shapes which reveal a real depth rarely seen in this style of work.
Wendy Satchwell was born in Birmingham and studying Art & Design at Redditch College of Art. Wendy then went on to attend Birmingham University gaining a BA Hons degree in Fine Art & Textile Design.
An internationally acclaimed artist in the contemporary art scene, her work confronts you with colour, no beginning and no end, an altogether all-consuming feast for the eyes to feed your soul and enhance ones imagination. Her work is collected by High Profile celebrities and she has an international following alongside a worldwide collector base. Wendy creates wonderful artwork for private residential and corporate clients.
Although abstract, the composition of Wendy’s pieces is very considered with colour and shapes meticulously planned out long before she actually starts painting. She creates highly textured surfaces by layering Oil and water based paint on Canvas. So with her intricate use of mixed media and her incredible use of colour and composition it has been described as ‘Emotional Abstract Work’ because they reach out to each individual viewer, revealing different shapes and forms. The finishing touch sees a glass-like resin coating applied to the piece. This enhances both the colour and the deliberate imperfections within the surface of her work, creating a beautiful clear and porcelain finish to her paintings.
