Damian Talbot Fine Art

Welcome!

Hi there, I'm Damian. I paint what I see and feel in the landscape, working directly in nature to capture fleeting moments. I also write about art, process, and the creative life. This space brings it all together.

Art Musings

Art Musings is where I share the quieter side of my practice, from making paint and framing, to reflections on literature, landscape, and the rhythm of daily life. It’s a space to pause, reflect, and connect with others who find meaning in the creative process and a deep love for art in all its forms, especially landscape painting.
