About Me
I’m a contemporary coastal artist living and working in Cornwall, creating soulful, expressive paintings inspired by the raw beauty and rhythm of the sea. My work is deeply rooted in the outdoors - shaped by a life spent rowing, swimming, surfing, and walking the coastline, always chasing that sense of freedom and connection.
I originally trained and worked as a vet - a path shaped by my love of animals and the natural world. Today, I feel incredibly lucky to split my time between the veterinary practice and my art studio.
At the heart of what I create is an invitation: a pause. In a world that moves too fast, I want my art to offer people a sense of stillness, freedom, and space to breathe. My paintings, prints, and now my homeware collection are all shaped by this same intention - to bring the wild beauty and quiet calm of the Cornish coast indoors.
Whether you’re collecting a painting, a print, or a piece for your home, I hope my work helps you reconnect - with the sea, with beauty, and with a quieter part of yourself. It’s all for ocean hearts and wild souls who crave that feeling of being close to the water.
Thank you for being part of this journey. I wouldn’t be able to do this without your support!
If you’d like to visit the studio, I’d love to hear from you - just email hello@sophiebagnallart.com or use the website contact form to arrange an appointment.
With love from Cornwall,
