New abstract paintings on canvas for sale.
I’m excited to present 5 new works from December 2021 – Early January 2022.
These paintings are warm and dynamic, experimenting strongly with contrasts between colour and surface, bringing to the attention the materiality of the paint.
In this wider body of work, there is an amplification of the experience of colours, layers and planes of the painting surface into three-dimensionality, enhancing the vibrance, brilliance and clarity of colour.
The natural duck cotton gives an organic contrast with the syntheticity of the acrylic paint and it complements and enhances the tones, transparencies and opacities of the applied planes of colour.
The geometric forms and layers nod towards a three-dimensionality and future plans to widen my practice into ‘other’ dimensions.

I retain an exhibiting body of work of my practice, to be able to share my work with more people. While not all of my works are for sale, I have made these new works available to buy through my website, and I accept commissions for work in this practice.
More about my current works in this decade
My close focus to the material of the paint and the canvas as being ‘as one’ continues to be a theme within these works, but adds in the additional aspects of light and the viewer, lifting the viewer bith physically and emotionally as they feel the ebergy of the work.
Through the exploration of the properties and abilities of paints to their most clear and luminescent ability, by using fluorescents, pastels and clean, pure colours, I aim to feel uplifted by the paintings and to share that energising impact of colour with the viewer. The paintings seem to glow and emit light bringing the colour to its highest light emission, in parts casting light out and off the canvas, bringing the focus on colour both into the painting plane itself yet also to its’ surroundings, and also showing the ability of paint with material (particularly in relation to pieces made from acrylic) to itself create light.
The ‘canvas’ both interacts with the paint as a layer itself, and provides the physical layer on which the paint can sit and perform to a great degree. By seeing surface textures through sheer veils of paint or heavy elevations in the paint application, we are reminded of the process of painting and the physicality.
By bringing the paint layers out from the ‘canvas’ we are able to experience two dimensions in a three dimensional way, in opposition to enclosing the three dimensions into a two dimensional illusion. We feel and we experience the energy that has been given by the artist to the piece through the process of painting which brings the painting into reality and this is reflected back at us.

I’ve just released some brand new paintings for sale which are available to be purchased online.
Available to purchase online, or in-person from me by booking a private studio view
My 2021 latest paintings continue the work last released in 2020. By continuing the practice where I left off I’m pursuing a strand of work and exploration that has come from my body of work which is about an amplification of the experience of colours, layers and planes of the painting surface into three-dimensionality, enhancing the vibrance, brilliance and clarity of colour.
While the previous works explore a range of ‘canvas’ materials such as perspex, these current works are painted onto natural duck cotton which not only shows this beautiful natural flecked canvas in contrast to the fluorescents, but also complements the tone and enhances the tones and visual effect of the planes of colour.
By working to a smaller scale, I am able to experiment more wildly with energetic compositions and dynamics within the work and it enables me to take risks.

New Works / Trudie Moore Exhibition October 2020
New Works
/October 2020
An exhibition of painting and installation
Join me for my solo exhibition of new works created during my residency at Gray’s Wharf in September and October 2020, and of key works from the last 12 months.
On show at Gray’s Wharf Gallery from Tuesday 13th – Sunday 18th October 2020
My 2020 solo show is an exploration of my abstract painting into installation, an amplification of the experience of colours, layers and planes of the painting surface into three dimensionality and enhances the vibrance, brilliance and clarity of colour.
With the aim of using my residency at Gray’s Wharf to push the boundaries of my practice, I have used the space to stretch out and expand in size and concept. Through use of the light and airy space awarded by Gray’s to me, I have been given mental space, time, physical space and opportunity for reflection and deep focus.
Together with the team at Gray’s Wharf, we would like to invite you to visit, experience and be surrounded by new works produced during the residency, along with a few other key pieces from the last year which have been produced exploring the same key themes of luminosity, material, process, composition, technique and colour.
My new paintings explore a range of painting surfaces including natural canvas, acrylic and wood, at times creating three dimensional installation pieces which bring close focus to the material of the paint and the canvas as being ‘as one’.

About my paintings
My paintings use fields of colour, transparencies and opacities that act as both a visual and an actual layer over one another, and which are layers upon the surface layer of the canvas.

Gray's Wharf Residency September - October 2020
My big news for 2020
I’m delighted to announce that In September 2020 I’ll be taking up a fabulous opportunity for a Residency at Gray’s Wharf Studios in Penryn, Falmouth.
For 6 weeks I’ll be occupying this beautiful studio on the river with support from Naomi Frears.
There is so much development and progression I think it’s going to bring to me and I’m really looking forward to in depth discussion around my work and practice and the opportunity to advance.
We aim to enable artists to develop their practice by providing a space to explore concepts, experiment with scale and materials, test ideas or take a new direction. We offer a supportive, professional creative community with 20 practitioners based in individual and shared studios as well as additional gallery and events spaces.
I’ll post more through the website about my aspirations and plans for this, but for now, it’s still sinking in (and I have some planning to do!)
