Diane Griffiths

I am a British contemporary artist who paints night-time scenes inspired by familiar rituals and everyday journeys. My work explores how natural and man-made light can transform ordinary landscapes after dark, revealing moments that are easy to overlook but stay with us. Working primarily in acrylic on square canvases, I use colour, texture and atmosphere to create a sense of story. My paintings are less about specific locations and more about collective experience; places we recognise, routes we repeat, and moments many of us have inhabited. Recent national recognition, including two People’s Choice Awards and competition shortlisting, has reinforced my belief that work rooted in everyday experience can resonate widely.
