Ruth began painting urban landscapes in lockdown. ”When I paint landscapes, it is the outer edges that draw me close. Juxtapositions and contrasts, things and places that can hold opposing characteristics simultaneously. I am drawn to areas that sit just on the outskirts, on the border between becoming ‘town’, places that lie in the grey area. The beauty of the woodlands and forests co-existing with an idea that it would be east to get lost within.” “A place that I find fits this theme is Sizewell in Suffolk. I find the huge nuclear power stations that sit right next to the sea outstandingly beautiful. There couldn’t be a greater contrast of nature sitting literally side by side with man built. Some people loath the building, some people love it. Despite the disconnect between the power plant and the natural beauty, I feel that there are also similarities between the two.”

The Own Art Scheme is an interest-free loan scheme set up by the Arts Council that is designed to make it affordable for everyone to buy original, high quality contemporary art and craft by letting you spread the cost of your purchase over 10 months.
You can choose any work with a retail price between £250 and £25,000 from our great selection of prints, paintings, ceramics, sculpture, glass and wood. It is not possible to buy gift vouchers with the Own Art Scheme.
You can borrow from as little as £250 up to a maximum of £25,000 . We then spread the cost of your purchase over 10 months with an interest free loan. For instance, if you buy a painting from us that costs £300 through the own art scheme, you would pay £30 in 10 monthly installments.
