Alex Jakob-Whitworth
Since early childhood, painting, drawing, and responding to what I see has always been a method of exploration and thinking for me. Painting, drawing and experimenting with different media is a source of fulfilment, learning, and a way of processing both information, and my own reactions to it. Sharing with others is something I am passionate about and have been doing since 1990.
I use several media - oil and watercolour, acrylics, mixed media and other 2-dimensional materials. Experimenting with 'found' objects - wire, textiles and various tactile items also forms part of my work. Some things hold particular meanings for me - horses, landscape-work and domestic objects. However, I find that I am beginning to follow wider, more abstract paths and places. Although 2-dimensional work (e.g. painting and drawing) have been my priority and speciality in general, I am also a trained printmaker, love experimenting with photography and its possibilities, - and am extending what I do into different materials and approaches.
I teach at Adult Education, and deliver workshops and demonstrations to schools, art groups and conferences. (Insured, qualified and enhanced CRB).
I hope you enjoy looking at my work.
