Artist Statement
I am primarily a painter, with a practice that also explores sculpture and UV-reactive materials. I move between mediums intuitively, guided by curiosity and a sense of play.
My work is colourful, atmospheric, and psychedelic, drawing inspiration from nature—animals, plants, fungi, and landscapes as well as from patterns, colour, and a feeling of connection to something greater than myself.
Recently, I’ve focused on portraiture and paintings that shift under UV light, revealing hidden layers and inviting changing ways of seeing.
Artist Bio
Morwenna King (Wenna) is an emerging Scottish artist based in Aberdeenshire. Raised in the Cairngorms National Park, her early exposure to art—through her mother, a practicing portrait artist—shaped her foundation in observational drawing and sculpture.
She studied Fine Art at the University of Dundee, graduating with Honours in 2023. Alongside her academic practice, she established an independent art business, producing a diverse range of works including portraiture, painting, sculpture, and small-scale objects. Her current practice focuses on developing her artistic voice while situating her work within a broader contemporary context.
