Hello, I’m Amabel,
Thoughtful art, inspired by nature, cities and connection.
Amabel Barlow is a landscape artist whose oil paintings reflect a strong connection to place and a deep appreciation of both natural and built environments. Her work ranges from delicate botanical studies to more defined urban scenes, each created with careful attention to detail and mood. Through expressive colour and composition, she captures the atmosphere and emotional essence of the landscapes she paints. Amabel's painting, Talcum and Malcolm, was exhibited and sold at this year's Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition.
If you’d like to discuss a commission or collaborate, I’d love to hear from you — please email amabelbarlow2015@hotmail.com or get in touch using the contact details below.

The festive season is fast approaching, and I’m delighted to be preparing for a busy few months of Christmas markets, exhibitions and events.
This year I have a lovely collection of festive gifts featuring my original artwork, including bone china Christmas baubles, new greeting cards and my painting calendar — perfect for a special gift or a little treat for yourself.
I’ll be bringing these, along with my original paintings, limited-edition prints and other stationery, to markets and exhibitions throughout the festive season.
Come and see me in person!
You can find all my upcoming Christmas markets, exhibitions and events on my Events Calendar, which I’ll be updating throughout the season.
I’m really looking forward to seeing you and sharing my artwork with you this Christmas.
Celebrate throughout the year with this Calendar 2027, featuring a collection of Amabel Barlow’s original paintings created in 2026.
The calendar includes some of my new paintings from my River Stories collection, which I am currently building towards my second solo exhibition in summer 2027. It also features my Royal Academy painting Talcum and Malcolm, my Cannes painting submitted for the Royal Academy’s French Riviera competition, along with some of my Christmas artwork.
Each month showcases a different original artwork, bringing together paintings inspired by the River Thames, nature and London.

Calendar 2027
“River Stories: Paintings from Places on the River Thames"
Solo Exhibition — Summer 2027
Gallery White Box, 5 Hare and Billet Rd, Blackheath, London SE3 0RB
River Stories is a collection of paintings inspired by the 184-mile journey of the River Thames. From its quieter upstream stretches to the wide estuary and out to sea, the same water passes through many different landscapes, linking places, people and moments in time.
This exhibition looks at scenes along the river where history and everyday life meet — royal palaces, castles, working riverbanks, bridges, open water meadows and familiar urban views. The Thames is constantly changing with the tide, light and weather, and each painting captures a small part of that movement and atmosphere.
Together, the works follow the river’s path, celebrating the variety of places found along its banks and the shared thread of water that connects them. River Stories reflects the character of the Thames as a living river, shaped by history and still very much part of daily life today.
