Maureen Greenwood`s Art Gallery
A collection of
contemporary and innovative art
HOME
Maureen Greenwood was born and educated in Dublin. She came to London in the early sixties and has lived in Stanmore, Middlesex since then.
From early childhood she has been
interested in painting and in 1988 she gave up her full time job to devote her
time to art.
Although she has attended art
courses at various colleges, including The Camden School of Art, Stanmore
College, Hendon College and The Harrow Arts Centre, she is fundamentally a
self-taught artist.
She had her first
public exhibition at the Stanmore Library in 1991 where her exhibits covered a
broad spectrum of subjects in which she has used a variety of painting
media.
Maureen's vibrant interpretation of semi-abstract landscapes, seascapes and skies shows her great love of colour. She also enjoys working in mixed media using different textures and collage, adding colour to create exciting effects and is always on the lookout for new ideas.
Her other interests
include photography and gardening, both hobbies assist in formulating her
ideas for new paintings.
She has travelled extensively in
Europe where she derives inspiration for further paintings. She has been
successful in selling her work in many places, including France, Italy,
Ireland and South Africa.

which I commissioned of late. The painting is proudly displayed in my

you rose to the challenge and produced this superb painting.I was also
very impressed with your level of professionalism, particularly the steps you
took to understand the subject matter. I look forward to commissioning
another work at some point in the near future. TB,Middx.
