Jane Brooks Long Border Studio

My inspiration comes from landscape and the natural world. From the start of this year I have been working in an old quarry very close to my home in the Lower Wye Valley. I’m always searching for ways to deepen my involvement with landscape and recently this has happened through drawing. Taking a small watercolour pad and a vast box of drawing materials to the quarry. I’ve experimented with observational drawing, concentrating on extending colour use and the energy of line, to represent the ever
changing panorama.

Mid year, I now have quite a number of these small, bright celebratory works. Happy images, made during a long spell of fine weather. As a professional printmaker, making the mixed media drawings the final art work has been refreshing, and challenging.
