“FLAMBOYANT SERIES” Catalogue for Biba Fundraiser "AN EVENING WITH THE MASTERS" exhibition

Dedicated to Nadja “This series came about one evening last year. It had been raining and the ground just outside Nadja’s home was carpeted with flamboyant blossoms. So beautiful.

I picked one of the flowers up and started to photograph it with my iphone on the bonnet of my car. But it was getting dark so I brought it home and lay it in front of my computer screen while I worked online. The halogen light I work under lit up the flower in an impossibly romantic way. Even the shadows had glorious shades to them reflecting the red of the flamboyant.

I slid a piece of ordinary white paper under it and these are what resulted.

I remain open to any medium, to experimenting and to playing.

It is the only way I know how to create.”

Corrie Scott artist. photographer. dreamer Corrie, self taught, has photographed, and also scribbled and painted on everything she could find since childhood.

In her daily travels, and also world travels, Corrie always has a camera close to hand to capture those elusive human moments and those ' around the corner' views that delight. The back light of a flower, a turtle popping its head up above water, a lonely worker in the fields, a huddle of ladies gossiping under and umbrella, the balletic movements of the fishermen as they use their nets. So much that surrounds us.

Also an artist, her exercise books were always full of doodles in the margins, and she was always in trouble for it with her teachers, who felt she was not concentrating on her studies. Working and experimenting in all mediums, she does not restrict herself in subject matter, going from clean representational watercolours to large abstract pieces in acrylics and mixed media. And is now experimenting with digital art producing bodies of work within digital photography and art.

Corrie may be contacted at her studio ( by appointment please as she may be out painting or photographing) on the South Coast in a charming National Trust recognised cottage. #17 Pavilion Court, Hastings, Christ Church, Barbados, West Indies 246 424 3965 corriescott@gmail.com www.corriescott.net
