David Jones

I am both a painter and printmaker.

Much of my work is about history. What interests me is how we can see evidence of the past all around us. I paint contemporary scenes, people in public places and architecture but am always conscious of the historical context of each scene.

In terms of carrying out the work, drawing is an essential basis together with a strong pictorial structure.

Colour and pattern, although intuitive, are also important elements of both paintings and prints.
