Victoria Coleman
Victoria has led a diversely creative life achieving a degree in metalwork and jewellery, she began her career in the prop making industry making costume props for films such as Star Wars and Gladiator, painted Disney characters to go in their flagship stores around the world and started a business making quirky soft furnishings. She is now happiest painting at her home in Shropshire with her two wirehair dachshunds, springer spaniel and cat for company.
Victoria’s paintings are often bold and can be humorous, she uses water based scenic artist’s paints and an air brush to capture the detailed characters and textures of her subjects. However, the prop maker in her never left and has began to dabble in the world of sculpture creating a range of paper clay based mixed media sculptures. Brought up surrounded by dachshunds and chickens it is no surprise that animals are her favourite subject. Her love for all things furry or feathered shines out in her work.
