An exhibition of paintings by David Jones
David says of his work 'In my painting I try to express the essence and drama of something I have seen. I try to do this not as a direct transcription from the view to the canvas but rather as a pictorial or graphic representation of it. Whilst my work is figurative my paintings have a strong abstract quality. Colour is an integral part of my approach which is important in both expression and structure. The colour is drawn from observation but is heightened or painted in a different key.
The structure of my paintings is important to me - drawing and colour play their part as does balance and organisation within the picture plane.
Opening Night of exhibition:
9th April 6-8pm
David Jones will also be running a Meet the Artist/Open Sketchbook event on Saturday 11th April.
