Phoebe Hardwick draws inspiration from past painters, particularly those of Dutch and Flemish origins, and employs a naturalistic style to connect her work to reality and art history. This naturalism is juxtaposed with peculiar compositions to enhance the ambiguity of the settings, inviting contemplation from the audience, while a narrative is implied, it is open. Her use of hyper-realistic color and assured brushwork adds a textural softness and an uncanny layer to her narratives, making her paintings feel more 'real' than photographs while maintaining their painterly essence.
