'Market Street' by Jane Hooper
Jane Hooper
Jane's paintings depict simple subjects, often still life arrangements of vases, jugs, flowers on a table commonly found in her everyday domestic environment. Her muted palette gives her paintings a tonal subtlety and her choice of limited subjects give a purity to her work. Jane has been painting for the past twenty years, constantly refining her technique. She’s an artist that will make you crave more wall space.
The artist explains:
“I have always enjoyed drawing from an early age, then I discovered oil paints and have never looked back. I have a real passion for simple, uncomplicated still life, choosing vegetables and flowers from the garden as my main subject matter. I often pair them with kitchen scales or other domestic objects. Colour is important too. I am very drawn to a subtle palette and my aim is to make the colour I choose work in harmony."
Jane Hooper is a self-taught artist based in Buckinghamshire, working predominately in oil, to build shape, colour and texture. It is still that has become her passion, creating simple yet beautiful paintings with a muted palette. She draws on the landscape around her or on everyday life objects for inspiration.
