About Dawn Latham

 
 
  • Biography

    I can spend hours sifting through the shoreline, beachcombing and mudlarking.

    My art is constantly inspired by erosion, trace & the scars that unintentionally reveal the past. My paintings often have a nostalgic link to bygone times and to fragmented memories. Colours are often muted with a vintage/retro feel.

    I often combine paints, pigments, pencil and inks in my artwork.
