SUMMARY:Art History Talk - Rafaele Appleby
DESCRIPTION:Rafaele was born into an artistic family\, immersed in a world of paintings and music from a young age. Working in a studio near Hadrian’s Wall\, with views of the Cumbrian fells to the south and a kitchen garden to the north\, Rafaele’s art often draws inspiration from the surrounding nature. The process can be swift and dynamic or slow and meditative\, depending on the subject and mood.  Much of Rafaele’s work revolves around an exploration of color and light. \n“The music or silence that fills the studio is always deliberate\, never by chance. Solitude is essential in the studio\, where the creative process remains deeply personal.” \nWild landscapes are a constant source of inspiration—whether it’s rugged rocks by the sea or settled in ancient stone circles\, crashing waves along remote shorelines\, or the ever-changing sky. Sometimes a delicate flower might find its way into the story. Their artistic journey is always intertwined with the presence of family and children\, who have grown up surrounded by both paintings and music. \nRafaele’s Website: https://www.rafaeleappleby.co.uk/ \nLunch in the Great Hall at Naworth is included. \nBOOK TICKETS HERE: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/Eoib
