'PALM HOUSE' etching
|
FREDERICK JONES
Born, 1955, Middlesex. Educated at the Universities of Newcastle, Leeds, and St Andrews.
Worked at the Midland Banks, Overseas Section, University of Cape Town, Cobham Hall
School (Kent), and (currently) University of Liverpool. Currently part time student at John
Moores University Liverpool. Started etching in 2003. A poetry collection was published in
1996, Congreve's Balsamic Elixir.
Statement
On the surface my etchings are representational. The content is chiefly urban and/or
figurative, and they aim to catch the texture of the everyday world - places, times,
effects of light and weather. On the other hand, I am very concerned with the abstract
geometries which remain visible within, or arise from, the world of appearances. The
main influences on my etching have been the etchings of Rembrandt, and modern
Dutch and Scandinavian printmakers.
