Tamara Phillips

Tamara Phillips is completely inspired by nature and natural elements around her. she believes that beauty is everywhere; in the growth of the forrest, in the depth of the sea, the curves of bone. Tamara looks at many elements such as skin, scales, bark and the ripples of a puddle. She believes in the raw texture of her environment, Tamara also believes she is a translator of life and is obligate to narrate it.

i love the way Tamara has played with different patterns in her work and took out the classing patterns and textures of the animals normal skin, she incorporates bold colours that create beautiful pieces that do reflect the true beauty and grandeur of the animals.

I've taken inspiration from Tamara Phillips work as i'm inspired by changing the texture and patterns of the animals skin to create new and imaginative pieces that reflect more of my own style, i would also like to encorporate different styles into this type of work, possible using line drawings or different mediums such as oil pastels or paint.
