Camilla uses a simple palette of soft colours to create quiet and contemplative urban landscapes in acrylic or oil. She removes contemporaneous distraction and invites us to see - often for the first time - the beauty of the built environment.
Camilla primarily works on gesso and mixes her own - the surface is as important to her as the paint she applies.
In 2014 Camilla won Artist of the Year in Artists & Illustrators Magazine, followed in 2015 by a solo exhibition of new work at the Jonathan Cooper Gallery in London. She was awarded the Chairman’s Prize at the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition in 2017 and to her delight won again in 2018. She was then presented with the Neil Meacher RI Award for an Outstanding Watercolour at the 206th annual exhibition of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours in 2018. She was chosen as the ‘Painting & Mixed Media Prize’ winner at the Visual Art Open in 2019.
Camilla exhibits in galleries across the UK and regularly features in art society exhibitions including the RI Painters in Watercolours, the ING Discerning Eye, the Society of Women Artists, the Bath Art Society and the Sunday Times Watercolour Exhibition.
She’s a member of the Oxford Art Society and has been invited to exhibit at the Mall Galleries in London by the art collector and critic John Penrose. In 2019 she featured 'in a pod' on ‘Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year’.
Camilla also works to commission. Having painted urban landscapes and period buildings for over twenty-five years Camilla is often approached to paint private homes, businesses, town centres and city streets across the UK and Worldwide.
