Cornwall Art and Culture from genius loci

TRACE GOLDSMITH

Cornish Artist Prints from Cornwall

What influences have you had from other artists?

'I think to some degree, I am influenced by all art and artists, whether consciously or otherwise. What I like and dislike is stored and either introduced or avoided in my own work.'
'There is no 'one' artist that I feel influenced by, more, elements on the whole that trigger my own creativity.'

'To be honest, I am equally influenced more so by the colour theory and the science of mood enhancing colours.'

'Ironically enough, the artists I admire are people like Rodney Matthews and Boris Vallejo whose style has no obvious baring on my current work but who certainly have influenced my artistic development.'

Trace Goldsmith and her use of colour.
Introduction.
I first discovered Traces' work when I went on a family break to Cornwall. One day we took a trip to a small fishing village called, St.Mawes. Here I discovered 'The Picture House,' this was a tiny gallery shop. As soon as I walked in, nothing else caught my attention more than this painting by Trace Goldsmith. The only word I could can use to describe my thoughts and feelings at that point, is, 'Bliss.'

I couldn't believe that a painting could make me feel so calm, happy and atmospheric. It was the best thing I had ever seen, it was magical, a painting that sparks a chemical reaction, that makes you feel immediate happiness. Abbie Stokes, Gloucestershire
