Jasmin Martin: “Cityscapes; London” 3rd - 31st March 2017
Artists Statement
I am a 19 year old university student who graduated from Colchester County High School for Girls in 2016.
This collection of work is a selection of pieces from my Art and Design A- Level. Our topic for A- Level was scapes and from that I endeavoured into painting cityscapes.
My aim was to portray the feeling of being in a city; choosing different colours and building textures to create different atmospheres.
During the time of developing my work, I spent a lot of time in London, finding places which made me feel certain emotions. I would then return home, experiment with different colour schemes and develop textures to create what you see today.
Inspired by Ricter and Monet, I discovered that artist’s present energy and the feeling of being in a city through different colour ways, subtlety, texture, lighting and composition.
These are the first painting I have ever done, and I hope to continue painting and develop my skills over time.
