Franceska McCullough Hertfordshire, United Kingdom
I'm a fine artist working in drawing, digital painting and figurative studies. My work moves between observation and imagination, including landscapes, self-portraiture and scenes from my MirMarnia world. I develop both digital and traditional pieces for exhibition.
I work across drawing, digital painting and figurative studies. Much of my practice comes from observation: self‑portraiture, landscapes from the places around me and still life. Alongside this, I develop the visual world of MirMarnia, creating scenes that sit between imagination and lived experience. I use Procreate when I need flexibility or when space is limited, and I return to pencil and ink when I want a slower, more physical way of working. My digital pieces are developed as archival prints for exhibition, and my traditional drawings are shown as works on paper. I’m interested in atmosphere, quiet narrative and the way imagined and observed worlds can inform one another.

Imperial CDT Festival of Science and Art21/04/2017 I participated as a sculptor in the festival because my sculptures use sacred geometry and planetary orbits references to create so my work related to their science and art theme. I displayed my work in a darkened room with light streaming through them to create shadows and light patterns which altered the environment. |
