Angela Cookney

I have painted in oils, watercolours and acrylics for many years. More recently I have worked mostly in acrylics, introducing hand painted collage and printing into some of my work.

I am fascinated by colour, bold shapes, line and pattern. I experiment with these to produce interesting still life and interiors art works.

Inspired by my home surroundings, most of my recent still life work is a blend of realism and stylisation which comes from my imagination.

I love exhibiting my art work. I have exhibited regularly at my local gallery, Babylon Arts, and also twice a year in central Cambridge with the Cambridge Drawing Society, as well as other local exhibitions. My work has been purchased by collectors both in the UK and abroad.

I am a selected member of Cambridge Drawing Society. I also take part in Cambridge Open Studios during July and was Outstanding Artist winner at the most recent Cambridge Open Arts Exhibition in 2023.

I have been invited by Haddenham Arts Centre to exhibit a collection of my work to fill their gallery area in May 2025.
