Jane German Go Back! | ||||
In 1991 after 20 years of living and teaching in Chichester I moved to to the Waveney Valley area of Norfolk and have worked full-time since as a painter. Living in this rural area had a bearing on my choice of subject matter for over 15years with local Friesian Cattle featuring regularly in my compositions. Sadly this year our neighbouring herd has been sold up. It was deemed commercially unviable to carry on the dairy business after 60 years, I am happy to have recorded some of the cattle in their environment before they disappeared. Now, I am revisiting two subjects which I have enjoyed since my art school days; those of figure painting and still life. I've embarked on a series of family portraits. My family portraits. The piece I am submitting this year is a painting of my daughter Isabel Ashdown who lives in Chichester and is an author. I paint to celebrate and pay homage to all things special or exciting to meet.
