Abstract landscape painting, Exeter

Landscape, remembered from 35,000 feet

For 23 years Martine Elliott watched the world pass beneath an aircraft window. Her paintings hold what stayed: colour, atmosphere and the memory of places never quite still.

Why resin?

The application of resin introduces a reflective barrier that both preserves and distances the painted surface. Layers remain visible yet suspended, evoking the way landscape is experienced from above—held in view but physically and emotionally out of reach, shaped by memory as much as by observation.

Seen on Grayson Perry's Art Club

Martine's work was selected by Sir Grayson Perry for Art Club on Channel 4 and exhibited at Bristol Museum. She has since shown in Crawley and Exeter, and graduated in Painting with the Open University in 2025.
