CONTEMPORARY LANDSCAPE ART

Paintings that embody the spirit of the land and sea … each one with its own story to tell.

Shirley Kirkcaldy [SWAc] is a contemporary landscape artist based in Devon, England whose work captures the natural landscapes of the Southwest. Original artworks in oil and mixed media, created for contemporary lifestyles and curated interiors.

Original Landscapes

Landscape paintings inspired by the ancient landscapes of Devon and Cornwall where well trodden pathways and granite tors combine under kaleidoscope skies to tell a story of the past..

Original Seascapes

Responding to the natural beauty of the Cornish and Devon coastlines, these seascape paintings embody the energy and drama of these spectacular settings. Each one has a story to tell.

Original Florals

Original paintings depicting floral art in contemporary settings. The rich symbolism of flowers offers an escape into the uplifting world of colour. These works are quiet and unassuming.

Abstract painting with warm earthy tones, including shades of pink, yellow, white, and black, featuring bold brushstrokes and textures.

Small but mighty, these original abstract paintings lose nothing in impact because of their size! Created in mixed media on art board they can be hung without a frame or framed in a narrow white float frame.
