'I want the colour to talk' Artist Sarah Spackman celebrates 20 years at Sarah Wiseman Gallery in Summertown with new exhibition Continuum

Artist Sarah Spackman is preparing for a new exhibition titled "Continuum" at the Sarah Wiseman Gallery in Summertown, celebrating 20 years of collaboration with the gallery. The show features 30 new still lifes, reflecting Spackman's evolving style toward greater simplicity and focus on single objects, color, and quiet intensity. Spackman, an Oxford-based artist and elected member of the Royal Society of British Artists and Royal Institute of Oil Painters, describes her process as organic, often sketching first thing in the morning and working primarily with color to let it "talk" on the canvas.
