SERIOUS COLOUR. PLAYFUL DESIGN.
Bold original paintings and contemporary giclée prints
I’m Victoria Mardon, an award-winning British abstract artist and designer who combines systematic processes with playful experimentation.
My work sits where abstraction meets pattern, exploring repetition, variation, and my passion for colour. My practice is rooted in joy, curiosity, and the pleasure of making.
365: A YEAR IN COLOUR
This year, I am sharing a year-long painting project: 365 works, one for each day of the year.
Each painting is anchored to a specific calendar date and shaped by the structure of a dated Sudoku puzzle. Its logic is translated into colour, pattern, and variation.
This project builds on my MA research into series and variation and years of studio practice. It explores what happens when a system guides a year-long series of paintings.
Over the year, the works accumulate into a visual calendar of colour.

WHY I LET A SUDUKO PUZZLE DECIDE
People often ask why I use a dated Sudoku puzzle as the framework for 365 paintings. It sounds rigid, but for me it's about freedom.

IT STARTED WITH A SUDOKU GRID
The story behind 365: A Year in Colour — a failed Sudoku puzzle on a family holiday and the slightly rebellious choice to colour it in instead.

FROM EXHIBITION WALLS TO LETTERBOXES
The story behind the ten vintage Plymouth postcards I painted with a bold metamorphic pattern, each a tiny artwork connecting colour, pattern and place.
