Biography

Jonny's paintings are abstract in style and impasto in technique. Inspiration is drawn from a variety of sources. The Irish landscapes which he loves, energising music and a dash of African colour added from his youth to create vibrant expansive paintings rich in roots yet free for interpretation.

"I'm connecting with my heritage through my painting, Co. Clare, the West of Ireland, my art draws me back there time and time again."

Jonny paints from his art studio over-looking a winding river. In this setting it's easy to connect with his inner inspiration and draw from the heart. This shines through his artwork in the natural, boundless nature of his work.

"Painting abstract allows me the freedom to explore these themes without constraints. I allow colour and layers of texture to tell the stories of the subject"
