Biography

Janet Chaplin painter

Location: Abergavenny, United Kingdom
Style: Landscapes / Seascapes

I am an artist and teacher in South Wales. I love contrasts of scale colour and textures and my paintings are full of atmosphere.

My seascapes are rich in marks and i love to experiment with media such as Acrylic ink and salt. My landscapes start out as detailed sketches drawn in situ then painted back in the studio with bright contracting colours highlighting the ever-changing tones of the hills surrounding my home.

I have been selling and exhibiting my work around South Wales for the last 5 years. I have exhibited in oreil parc and picton castle as several other galleries.

I often sell through galleries and artisan fairs as well as taken part in art fairs and festivals. I have accepted commissions and deliver workshops.
