Blythe’s paintings are a fusion of imagination, feeling and reality, where recognisable places are transformed through her distinctive use of colour, pattern, and texture. Whether depicting lively cityscapes, coastal scenes, or rolling countryside, her work radiates warmth and vitality. She works in a variety of media, skillfully layering paint, collage, and mixed materials to build depth and dimension. This approach allows her to create dynamic surfaces where light, movement, and intricate details come to life. Her art offers viewers a glimpse into her perspective, where everyday scenes are transformed into something extraordinary. With a background in both fine art and design, Blythe carefully constructs her compositions, blending structure with spontaneity.
