About Nina Worthe
Almost always to be found with paint on her hands and on her clothing, Nina Worthe is an artist who studied anthropology - drawn to faces and the interactions of people. These interactions, either between people in an art work, or between the viewer and the portrayed subject, are what she hopes to capture. Fairly bold colours and impasto brushwork give a sense of brightness and immediacy to the works created.
Animals, especially those that live close to humans, are another subject that is often portrayed. Her pug, Talos, is a much favoured model and muse.
