Joy Saunders

I have always appreciated the countryside and how the muted colours of an overcast or stormy day can look stunning. I create these colours by purposely restricting my palette and create layers of depth and atmosphere by using a palette knife and painting impasto style. All my pieces are finished with delicate brush work. My detailed and careful approach is infused with a passion to create an immersive visual and emotional experience.

The list of galleries I have most recently exhibited at:

 

Frogmore Street Gallery, Abergavenny

Red Rag Gallery, Stow -on-the-Wald

I also have my own studio/gallery based in Llantrisant and a member of the Black Mountain Circle of Maker
