Eve Pettitt is an English artist, living and working in London.
She trained as a Postgraduate at The Heatherley School of Fine Art and The Royal Drawing School, her studio is in West London. Eve is an elected member of the Chelsea Art Society and a recipient of the New English Art Club Scholarship. She was recently commissioned to paint 14 Stations of the Cross for St Eths Church in Fulham, London, the paintings were installed at Easter 2025.
Deeply connected to the earth, Eve’s practice is strongly influenced by the emotional power of nature, her work draws upon the colours and shapes of nature’s great gifts and is often autobiographical reflecting her state of mind. Colour is both the subject and the form in her paintings.
Eve’s practice is deeply concerned with the poetry of colour. She explores what happens when two colours meet, how they dance side by side and what occurs at the borderline. Drawing inspiration from the shallow planes of modernism, she builds form through geometric shapes, clear facets and defined edges. Each of her paintings expresses a personal approach to the dynamic articulation of colour, and this ravenous enquiry results in works that are exuberant and deeply expressive.
