JACKIE GARNER
Wildlife Artist Jackie Garner will be exhibiting in the Cotswold Room at the Painswick Centre for the duration of ARTBURST 2019
Jackie Garner takes her inspiration from wildlife, irrespective of whether that’s in the back garden or the other side of the world. She is open to the fleeting or unexpected – a colour combination, a moment of humour, the fall of light. Direct observation and sketches form the basis of Jackie’s work. Her art encompasses wildlife of the UK, the Falkland Islands, Egypt and India. She will be exhibiting paintings in acrylic and watercolours, from detailed realism to larger abstracts, plus sketchbooks, prints, puzzles and greetings cards. See more at www.jackiegarner.co.uk

My name is Kerry Jane and I'm an artist and the owner of The Falcons Nest in Painswick.
I opened the shop in August2016 as a spot to create my art as well as sell all sorts of cards and gifts...and my own art of course!
I grew up in the countryside and developed a deep love for the wildlife and nature around me, this has now become my main source of inspiration and I draw mainly birds and animals. At the moment my focus is mainly our very own British wildlife.
