painting away

by Janette Wright / Wednesday, 12 June 2013 / Published in Uncategorized

I have made an energetic start on my paintings. These are quite different from my illustrations of characters.

As a theme, I am focussing on a road trip we did to Namibia a few years ago.

I have many photos of empty sand-blown houses at Colmanskoppe and of abandoned cars and trucks. Because its so dry there, the detail preserved is amazing. They are all oil paint on canvas.

My goal is to have an exhibition and sell them if anyone wants to buy them! I will be looking for a venue to have the exhibition in the next few months.

Ps. these paintings are all works in progress … ie far from finished …
