Colourful Clustered Bottles and Cylinders | JONQUIL WILLIAMSON

Following a Diploma in Art and Design Jonquil joined Wimbledon Art Studios as one of over 300 artists and makers. She works daily from her studios at Wimbledon and at home in Surrey.

‘I paint in oils on canvas, linen or board. Colour is the dominant driver in all my works, creating vibrant still life and rich tonal landscapes. My paintings, created using oil paint, are inspired initially by colours I observe in the landscape and things around me. Although my work is mostly representational, I allow the mark-making and textures created as I layer the paint, to inform the image. My focus is the sense of place, or essence of the object rather than a strict representation of it.’

Jonquil’s work has been exhibited in galleries around London and the South West and has been shortlisted for the Visual Art Open in 2017 and 2018. In 2016 she also exhibited with selected shortlisted works in the National Open Art Prize.

Her contemporary style and cool colour hues have been very well received by our art buying clients this year. She is growing her collector base internationally, as her work proves so versatile in different room settings around the home.
