Jenkins

Painting is a conversation with myself, silent articulation of the feelings evoked by what I find beautiful and an internal road I walk along, backwards and forwards, memory and the present informing each other. More recently my work has suggested thoughts and recollections of where I was, of my early life in Manchester, brought to the fore now by the year-long progression towards a recent exhibition and reflections on the early roots of my current artworks. I love the fading light at the end of the day and the lights found within the dark of a rural landscape. I remember sodium-lit streets, the night bus and the tiny dashboard lights in cars, blinking in the night time of my childhood. These come together in recent paintings as I consider them more deeply and embed them into my current works and processes.
