Jane's love of drawing is evident in her most recent MA work. Firstly she observes and then responds. She describes what she is seeing in her own personal language, which allows her more natural movement in the work. Jane works on canvas and paper and responds to her subject with great passion and sensitivity. She loves the opportunity to experiment with lots of mark making and layering with her work, to build up a history on each canvas.

Susan Entwistle is one of the few pointillist painters practising their art. Her unique style of painting is created with layers of colourful dots to capture the vibrancy and essence of beautiful gardens, woodlands and landscapes. There are many similarities between creating a textile design that is aesthetically pleasing to the eye and creating a pleasing composition in a painting.

I always enjoyed art at school and had a great teacher but not many options were available to further my artistic education in those days so I ended up working at a local photography studio touching up black and white wedding photographs - yes they were all printed then, including the proofs.
