CHARLOTTE FLEMING
Exeter-based Charlotte inherited her passion for art from her father. After growing up surrounded by his furniture designs, she embarked on her own artistic career in illustration and fine art. Along with exhibitions at the Affordable Art Fair and London Art Fair, she has painted murals and designed restaurant interiors. She now runs her own shop – Fleming & Sell – in Devon. Her latest work is inspired by the lines and form of jellyfish. The fine metal nib of her dip pen and the volatile nature of the ink capture the motion of the currents and the otherworldliness of these ethereal creatures. Charlotte says: “I am fascinated by the separation of the sea and our world above. When I’mdrawing, I imagine where the current might be going and then let the pen trail across the surface to where the tendrils would float. I love working on a large scale – it all adds to the drama and movement of the jellyfish.”
