Marney Ward is renowned for her large glowing floral watercolours. She is particularly interested in the way translucent leaves and petals transform light and create complex shadow patterns. Watercolour is the perfect medium for her large floral close-ups, with its spontaneous flowing qualities and its clear, transparent colour that allows the light of the paper to shine through. Marney has also been experimenting with the unique edges and textures that can be achieved with granulating pigments. But the predominant feature of her work remains the tangible presence of light.
