RHS MEDAL WINNING ARTIST INTRODUCES HER PHOTOGRAPHIC ART PRINTS FOR THE HOME
Juliette Scott is a recent recipient of a RHS Gold Medal at the 2024 RHS Botanical Art and Photography Show . Her limited edition photographic prints are distinctive and captivating works of art which will enhance and complement interior spaces .
Juliette ’ s work is inspired by nature and the seasons around her in rural Northumberland , and also by intriguing architectural elements found on trips abroad . Her art captures her love of colour and texture nurtured over time through her previous jobs in art , antiques and interior design .
Her recent medal winning artwork , ‘ Tulips - Never Too Old to Dance ’ is a ‘ representational ’ collection , showcasing accurate studies of beautiful yet withered tulips at the end of their life cycle . The backbone to this series being a fascination with the dramatic colour changes in the decayed petals highlighted by the colour swatches included . “ Nature is often fleeting so I like to give people the chance to dwell on what I have witnessed or felt , through my art ,” Juliette explains . preferring to use what she has observed as a source to develop her compositions . Embracing different approaches to photography including intentional camera movement , incamera multiple exposures , as well as conventional techniques , Juliette also loves to explore blending and layers during post-processing , often producing near abstract results .
Inspiration certainly comes from travel and an ongoing fascination with Venice where Juliette is especially drawn to the city ’ s wide array of textures and reflections , combining the complex surfaces unique to the city and using them in unexpected ways . Marble seen on a church column might be reworked to create the sky in a Venetian cityscape , for example . Juliette has even incorporated the traditional art of paper marbling into her work and has produced a series of works which successfully combine her own marbled papers with her photography .
Passionate about hand-finishing select prints with metal leaf , Juliette explains that this process can add an extra layer of texture and shine , as well as creating a truly bespoke image .
Juliette Scott Photography produces small edition runs of each unframed printed image , offering something for every colour lover . Juliette is thrilled to have her works hanging in homes , offices and galleries internationally . She always welcomes commissions and collaborations .
Generally Juliette is less concerned with making images which replicate exactly what she is seeing , instead www . juliettescottphotography . com
