Green Tea and Cake by Sonia Barton
Born in Cornwall, Sonia Barton draws inspiration from memories of a frequently changing childhood, experiences that continue to shape Sonia Barton’s still life paintings. Working with muted colour palettes, flattened perspectives and subtle distortions of everyday objects, Sonia Barton creates compositions that explore form, texture and memory. Objects are often repositioned across the canvas, leaving traces through embossed textures, etched lines and layered surfaces.
A strong sense of time and movement runs throughout Sonia Barton’s work. Paint is applied and reworked using brushes, palette knives, rollers and rags, with layers gradually built up and scraped back to reveal hidden marks and textures. Influenced by weathered coastal environments and aged interiors, Sonia Barton’s paintings capture quiet observations and reflections from everyday life.
Sonia Barton graduated in Fine Art from Staffordshire University and later completed postgraduate studies at University of Brighton. Sonia Barton now exhibits regularly throughout the United Kingdom, with works held in private collections worldwide.
