Tapestry

Painting

Working in a variety of media, Jones explores the fusion between subject and expression. Often the subject invokes a style or colour scheme, with metaphoric representation enhanced by a limited palette and/or collaging of imagery.

Painting on Textile

Fabric paint on linen has served Jones as the medium of choice for commissions involving textile works for site-specific application where the artist and client assess that a hand woven tapestry is not suitable. Finished works on linen have a characteristic textile softness and swag, without the insurance concerns or vulnerability to sunlight of an heirloom tapestry.

Murals

Jones works with clients on interior and exterior wall mural projects. Often the site-specific concerns dominate, and the client and artist agree to serve the site and its use in finding a relevant design. Jones works alone or with a team to complete the work (in situ for exterior /in studio for interior application).
