2016 Paintings by Jackie Edwards

And so the year 2016 comes to an end, so it's only fitting that I show you just a few images of paintings I created mostly at my studio by the sea in South Wexford, Ireland.

It was an exiting year for me. Starting in Mexico, Lake Chapala, at a months long residency which started on 15th December, right through to January 15th 2016- what a start!

The images connected to Mexico, are on going,  and will not be shown just yet, but I am confident of my progress with this work and I have a good flow with it, but here is a little piece I painted over there called;
'A Proud Mexican'....for obvious reasons!



So here are some of the pieces I have worked on since which were shown in the Doorway Gallery, Art Fairs in Bristol, U.K, Battersea, Hampstead, Cambridge, London U.K and the Edinburgh Art Fair, Scotland...enjoy, I hope!
