About Diane Griffiths

Meet Diane Griffiths, a contemporary artists based in Cornwall. Through her ongoing series "The Colour of Night", she explores how natural and man-made light transforms familiar places after dark, celebrating the beauty of everyday locations that often go unnoticed. 

COMING SOON! 

Her brand new painting 'Looking Up', inspired by the distinctive red glow of one of the NOVA stargazing telescopes during a local stargazing session. Diane wanted to capture the curiosity it inspires and that feeling of standing beneath a dark sky and imaging what lies beyond the limits of our own eyes.
