Artist: Olivia van Hooft-Young
Olivia van Hooft-Young is an artist based in Blairgowrie, Perthshire. Having had a love of art and drawing from a young age, she went on to study Fine Art at Dundee’s Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design and graduated with a Ba(Hons) Degree in 2014. It was during this time of developing her practice that she discovered the technique ‘stippling’-where areas of light and dark are created using only dots and the tone of paper/background. Exploring this method she works predominantly (but not exclusively) in the medium of ink on paper, creating drawings inspired by the observation of pattern and geometry in the natural word combined with the spirit of our shared landscape and fauna. After finishing formal education she continued to work on her practice alongside working full time. However when the COVID 19 pandemic struck, this gave her the opportunity to spend her days creating and more time to develop ideas. During this time she began sharing her projects more seriously online, which in turn brought a larger audience to her work. Since then she has steadily but firmly established a growing creative and professional reputation. She has had the invaluable opportunities to gain experiences including working on both public and private commissions as well as collaborating with a local silversmith and jewellery designer. Her ambition for 2022 is to keep moving forward and continue striving to connect with a wider audience, as well as forging new relationships with other artists and small businesses within the creative community, namely through makers events and exhibitions. .
