SOLD
Artist: Janet Vinnell
Title: Claddagh
Medium: Pastel
Janet was raised and educated in Dublin, later moving to Ireland’s west coast where she established a home for her young family in Galway City and where she has lived for the past 25 years.
She began painting in oils shortly after arriving in Galway but soon found a liking for the somewhat unfashionable medium of pastel. She remains mainly self taught as an artist, although meeting fellow pastel artist, Victor Richardson, inspired Janet with a renewed entheusiasm for this wonderful medium which is as ancient as the hills. This unleashed a passion for pastels which continues today.
Combining her drawing skills with vibrant chalk pastel colours, she creates sumptuously rich and instantly accessible paintings of Galway’s landscapes, waterways and gardens. Her ability to bring water and reflected skies to life is masterful and her use of a light and painterly style is ideally suited to the rapidly changing scenes and weather patterns in the west.
