Miranda Boulton (b. 1973) is a contemporary British painter who lives in Cambridge with a studio in London. Boulton’s practice explores ideas around memory and time. Her work is questioning what it means to be a woman artist and feminist exploring floral painting. Boulton uses references from her extensive research of the floral still life genre and combines the traditions of Still Life painting and Abstraction within her mix of vigorous and delicate marks. Her rich, colourful, impasto oil paintings are expressively redefining contemporary floral painting today.
Boulton studied Art History at Sheffield Hallam University and at Turps Banana Art School in London. Her work has been shown internationally at Nada Miami (December, 2025) with Patricia Fleming Gallery and at Expo Chicago (2023) with Cynthia Corbett Gallery. Selected group shows include Royal Academy Summer Exhibition (2016 & 2019), ING Discerning Eye (2019 & 2021) and ‘Staged Nature’, Glyndebourne (2023).
In 2021 she won the Jacksons Painting Prize. Solo exhibitions include ‘Ghosts and Flowers’ with Cynthia Corbett Gallery in London (2024). Her first solo Museum exhibition ‘Chain of Flowers’ will open at Norwich Castle Museum and Art Gallery in May 2026.
She is a member of Contemporary British Painting and has paintings in many private collections in UK, Europe and USA.
