Verity Watkins

Painting

Verity is a contemporary animal portrait artist. Her paintings, produced using mainly acrylic paint, some with resin, are bursting with colour, texture and show the quirky characteristics of her subject through her painting style and composition. Verity likes to play with the natural character of the animals and enhance that through her painting.


Verity studied Textile Design at Nottingham Trent University and then went on to complete a PGCE in 2002. In 2009, Verity moved to Qatar for 8.5 years where she spent her time studying and painting camels, with their expressive faces they were the perfect subject to explore. She took part in many group and solo exhibitions in Qatar and since being back in Suffolk has joined the Suffolk Open Studios and Art in East Anglia art groups.


More recently her work has been focussed on endangered wildlife as well as common farm animals. Verity also loves painting abstract landscapes and has recently completed a mural in Framlingham. Verity is now based in Framlingham, Suffolk.
