Abstract Art That Transforms its environment and lifts your mood. Express your personality by bringing life and vibrancy or calm serenity to your space. Each piece elevates the ordinary into something special that will bring you joy for years to come.
Hello, and a very warm welcome to my website, thank you so much for visiting.
Here you will find paintings that are a vibrant celebration of joy and life, expressed through colour, pattern and texture. I love to create art that evokes an emotional response, and elevates its environment.
Owning a piece of original art that is personal and unique to you is very special. You will enjoy it every day in your home, and it will give you pleasure for a lifetime. My collectors have variously described my paintings as restful, evoking calm serenity, or others as joyful, inspiring, and energising. The right piece of art can set the tone and ambience of any space, domestic or commercial, and lift your mood.
When an original is beyond budget, there are many prints available in a range of sizes and formats.
Canvas prints are available here
Fine Art prints on paper can be found here
I hope you enjoy browsing and find something that resonates personally with you. I understand that choosing a piece of original art can feel like a big investment, so I would love to speak with you if you would like some help selecting the perfect piece.

A bit about me..
Alison J Gilbert – Contemporary Abstract Painter
Working from my studio in the depths of Somerset in rural England.
I have always been a creative, originally studying for a degree in textile design. I worked as a fashion buyer before retraining in interior design. This background and experience influences my preoccupation with colour, pattern and texture. I have been painting exclusively now for over ten years, creating entirely intuitively. Inspiration can be a mood or feeling, a memory, a place, a colour palette, and/or sometimes a symbol or motif. I am often inspired by the power of a word or a phrase. This may sometimes be incorporated in the finished piece in the form of visible or abstracted text.
I love to create work that makes a bold visual statement when viewed as a whole, but that also has richly layered surfaces full of depth and visual interest when viewed close up.
From time to time, I blog about current projects, things that inspire me, and I give a sneak peek into my process behind the scenes in my studio. Please do sign up to my newsletter here for studio updates, new blog notifications, art fairs, exhibitions and best of all – discounts and first access to new collection releases. I promise not to overwhelm your inbox!
Enjoy browsing the shop here for that perfect piece for your home or commercial interior.
