ARTIST JANET SAMSON

Janet Samson MA Leeds University, Born 1940 in Blackburn Lancashire there is no doubting this Lancasire Artists personal exploration of her art:- paint and painting; her artist statement reads; "The tonal arrangement of a work is a primary concern; this makes abstract forms within the figurative painting. Similarities in the structure of shapes can create duality and ambiguous meaning. Portraiture from life is a relatively small but important part of my work. Ongoing themes are journeys, towns and landscapes, interiors, cloth and clothes and social situations. Everything that janet produces is informed by observed sketches then adapted by memory, imagination and the occasional photograph.
