About:

Pastel artist Dawn Limbert lives and works in North London. Originally from Yorkshire she relishes visits to the park and woods near to her home and tries to harness the experience of being immersed in nature. She records the beauty of the natural environment using lively marks of exaggerated colour, capturing moments when the light presents a scene in such a way that all of its textures, colours and patterns are revealed. Dawn’s larger works are crafted in her studio from sketches and photos to recreate her experiences of the vivid life of nature.

Her favourite subject are Landscapes, and she is never happier than when she is outside with her easel seeking to capture nature in all of its glory. Back in her studio she likes to paint listening to music which brings even more energy to her mark making.

Dawn exhibits with the Pastel Society, UK and the Society of Graphic Fine Art at Mall Galleries, London and this year was long listed for Jacksons Painting Prize. She has also been selected for the TALP Open at Patchings Art Festival.

Dawn is an Associate member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Art and the Pastel Society of America. She is also a member of the South-eastern Pastel Society and Red Rock Pastel Society of Nevada.

Dawn enjoys being a member of Studio Fridays, London a collective of talented female artists as it helps foster a creative collaboration between all of the artists, which in turn inspires her development as an artist.

Colour Chart Guidance

We believe the colours in our web based colour chart are a faithful representation of our pastel range. But with any colours portrayed on the internet, there’s a whole heap of variables which mean that what you see, may not be what we see. That said, there’s some things that can be done to mitigate some of the variance.

Mobile phone and tablet screens tend to be pretty good for colour, so they’re always worth using, when viewing our colour chart.

We hate to say it, but cheaper computer displays, including laptops, can be rather hit and miss, in both colour and contrast, so they might not reveal the depth of the colour, as well as the true tone.

If you’re really keen on getting your computer up to speed on colour representation, you can use a calibration device to reach your display's fullest potential.

With all that said, if you think we’re way off the mark with any of the colours then, by all means let us know, and we’ll give it another shot.
