Surrey based artist Jonquil is known for her vibrant still life or rich tonal landscapes. Although her work is mostly representational, she allows the mark-making and textures created as she layers the paint, to inform the image. Her artistic process is akin to unravelling a visual puzzle that needs to be assembled and solved first, then released with the introduction of colours and compositions as the images starts to take shape.

Jonquil’s work has been exhibited in galleries around London and the South East 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.

Of her work she shares, “like many still life painters, I find inspiration from taking everyday things and elevating to something beautiful and positive. I strive to create an atmosphere with my works; from the calmness and serenity of Morandi inspired clusters of pots and vessels, to the uplifting and cheerful vibrancy of fruits and foliage.
