Maggi Hambling at the National Gallery



Maggi Hambling has always been one of my favourite artists and as one of Britain's most important and controversial artists, she creates pieces that are exploding with energy. The 'Walls of Water' collection is no different. Based on a 2010 storm in Suffolk, portraying this storm onto eight out nine 6ft x 7ft canvas'. Th other one of the collection is a piece in memorial of Amy Winehouse.  
Seeing this collection in the National will be a huge inspiration for me to start being more fluid and energetic with my application of paint.
