Jill RolfeMy favourite medium is watercolour. I think that is mainly because of its unpredictability and movement but also because it can easily used with other mediums, for example graphite, pastel and pen and ink. I have the occasional foray into oils but inevitably will return to watercolour. Not keen on acrylics but it is a useful medium to use with collage and other mixed media projects. I like (although don’t always pull it off) to paint loosely. I want the viewer to have an idea of what I am painting or inspired by so that it will never be completely abstract. I will always try to avoid painting exactly what I see as I want my work to be painterly rather than look like a photograph. I like to paint figures and portraits, some animals, flowers, still life groups, landscapes (but no boats or buildings!), interiors and I am always looking for new inspiration. |
