Bron Jones

Bron’s passion for the natural world led her away from her early artistic leanings in school to a degree in Environmental Science at Aberystwyth Uni, then into a career of nature conservation and primary education.

Retirement has meant she can now combine her love of wildlife with art, and living in the beautiful Tywi Valley means she is never short of inspiration.

Bron works primarily in acylics on canvas and panels. She works in the landscape making marks quickly to focus her attention on glimpses, capturing first impressions of textures and shapes, and recording the landscape from different perspectives. Blind sketching back in the studio helps to further abstract the landscape and focus on feelings and impressions. She uses glazing, scratching and sanding through the layers to expose what lies beneath: subtleties of texture and colour that add to the overall feel of the painting. She enjoys experimenting with marks, often with materials found on her walks, and working more intuitively without an end design in mind, to bring the spontaneity of nature into her creative process and evoke the wild beauty of the Welsh landscape. Her ceramics evoke the wild beauty of the landscapes through the use of Kurinuki and Raku firing, and the use of the natural materials from location to create organic colours and glazes.
