A Cornish Autumn by Richard Tuff

Tuff’s works have spanned several locations, each with their own varying colour palette. From Morocco’s warm pinks and yellows blending into a haze of heat; to contrasting colours amalgamating into a vibrant view of Paris. Tuff’s Cornish scenes are no exception, with complimentary tones layered to create a tapestry of marks and colour. Bold marks swoop across the paper whilst layers build until the intricate marks depict just enough detail. It is no surprise Tuff’s background is in textile design with his skill to create recognisable landscapes with simplified tones and marks.

This collection perfectly captures each location whilst the use of colour immediately emits a sense of warmth or a cool sea breeze. The series encapsulates the romanticism of Cornwall in each and every season.
