Eileen Coxon's subject matter is her 'experience' of nature. She lives on the border of Suffolk and Norfolk so she uses these countries as her muse, although her landscapes are really more about land use, persepctive and colour rather than being representative. Walking provides her with material in the form of photos, drawings, collected  leaves, twigs etc.,  but most of all, memory.  Back in the studio, source material is set aside and the process of painting takes over. It is very much a two way ‘conversation’ between the painting and herself.
She is not seeking to romanticise the landscape and so her subject matter encompasses both the beauty she finds in the trees, hedgerows, wild flowers and grasses  found in field margins and verges as well as in this intensively farmed landscape, huge fields of monoculture  and industrial style farm buildings. When walking Eileen frequently looks up from the detail of the near to a distant horizon across fields marked only by the traces of cultivation and occasionally, of previous use. Frequently this translates to a play with perspective which reflects her subjective experience.
