Maggi Hambling

Maggi Hambling is a painter and sculptor. Her work concentrates on loss and death and is shown through her subject matter and her style of painting.

Hambling creates emotions in her work by the use of paint, or in her scallop piece, the use of words and the sculpture's placement. Hambling starts her images by doing studies in charcoal form which she then selects the one she wants to make a painting of.
