“..Phyllis’s paintings are imbued with her passionate, compassionate,
volatile and playful spirit. A compulsive artist, she seeks beauty in landscapes, still lifes and human form, all of which she interprets with
perception and respect.” Judy Russell
“.. As the hilly Dorset landscapes unfold, I see how wonderfully they have been distilled on to canvas by Phyllis Wolff.” Tony Birks-Hay

As a former exhibitor in Highgate,Phyllis is always producing vibrant paintings, and this Karnataka work is typical.Noel Oddy July 2005
