Vivienne Littley
In 2007, I made the inspiring move from Surrey to the picturesque village of Kilmington, East Devon with my two daughters. Art has always been my passion, but it was this relocation – surrounded by the breathtaking Jurassic coastline and ever-changing skies – that truly ignited my journey as a professional artist. I am largely self-taught, with over more than a decade of dedicated art tuition I have continued to refine and deepen my practice.
My artistic range is as diverse as it is expressive. From intricate pen and ink portraits to expansive abstract acrylic canvases, my work is often characterised by a serene, ethereal quality. I aim to evoke a sense of peace and tranquillity, offering a visual escape from the everyday. I’m particularly drawn to the harmonious relationship between sky and water, and the intense power held within those quiet moments.
Using a mix of acrylics, inks and watercolours, I often incorporate iridescent, metallic and textured mediums to create shifting light and depth that change with the viewer’s perspective. This dynamic quality means my work is best experienced in person.

Mary is intensely interested in texture and this tends to dominate her more recent work. Her colour palette is often limited, instead using texture as the emphasis. Her more recent work has seen a movement towards collage and collagraphs, the latter being prints made from a collaged plate.
