Hon Retired Member Janet Skea in the 209th RI exhibition…

It was lovely to hear from one of our Honorary Retired Members Janet Skea recently with a selection of images of her paintings.

With a focus on still life subjects, here on the left  Janet paints the subtlety of light on white fabrics, where soft shadows give shape and form. Each painting is an exquisite observation of everyday objects in light and airy spaces.

Janet’s more colourful paintings, seen here below are narrative paintings, with hidden or implied stories in the careful selection of objects grouped together.

Janet has a painting in this years 209th RI exhibition which can be seen by following the link :
