GILLIAN LEIGH's painting is typified by her highly finished surfaces. Process-based, her work employs a subtle use of pattern arrived at through a gradual and extremely precise method of paint application. The result is a smooth and delicate surface that may reveal an impression of shimmering material, emerging spiralling forms or blurred waves or points.

Intrigued by water and light and the movement that lies therein, Leigh alludes to that part of nature in her abstract works through her fluid and almost monochromatic canvases. Relying heavily on blues and greens the artist presents us with consistent work that is both luxurious and resonant in its finish and its effect.
