About the Artist - Portia Hibbert

 

"Art from Portia" was born out of my passion for creativity, self-expression and the freedom art provides.

Whilst I’ve always admired art, it wasn’t until May 2024 that I decided to pick up some acrylic paints and try my hand at painting. 

I am particularly drawn to creating art with ambiguity, allowing the viewer to build their own story from my work. I don't restrict myself by style, but abstract painting enables viewers to have their own interpretations. I’m fascinated by how a single piece of art can evoke diverse interpretations and emotions. 

I mainly work with acrylics and oil paints but love to experiment and evolve my craft. This journey continues to be a liberating one!

A Bristol-based artist, I love creating unique pieces that resonate with the soul. Each painting reflects my emotions, brought to life with bold colours and layered textures.

Growing up in the English countryside - Oxfordshire, Yorkshire and the Lake District - nature has always grounded me and now influences my art. My relationships, emotions and personal experiences — especially my journey with epilepsy — also inspire my creativity.

My goal is to keep nurturing my love for painting while continuing to grow and refine my skills. If my art brings joy or inspiration to others along the way, then what an incredible bonus!
