PRU WALTERS
bio
Born in Wales in 1949, Prudence Walters studied at Ravensbourne College of Art, London.
A career as a fashion designer was followed by a career as Make-up Artist/Body Artist gaining an international reputation with performances in New York and the UK.
In 1993 Prudence Walters moved to South Wales to paint. A solo exhibition at Gallery 286 London followed, and her work may currently be found in a number of leading Welsh Galleries.
"Concerned with colour and space and committed to abstraction, I also work from nature, passionate expressiveness, insistence and urgency.
Balance is sought between spontaneity and wilfulness, between intuition and inspired calculation and pure mark making.
A desire for freshness exists, directness and openness, rejection of 'orthodox' density creating expansiveness, the big expression emotionally charged orchestrations filled with joyous abandon."
