Painter, Printmaker and Mixed-Media artist Madelon Jones will be featured in June at Domesticities in Youngsville. Inspired by nature, Madelon’s work expresses that inspiration through abstraction of form and color. “Growing up in Brooklyn was a gift. Houses with gardens and fruit trees blooming in spring gave me my love of nature. I never wanted to reproduce what I saw, it was perfect as it was. Painting allows me to combine what I see with what I imagine using paint and cut paper to create the abstract forms of birds, fish, flowers and most of all skies and seas that reflect my personal vision. I learned my craft at UCLA receiving a BFA in art, then on to New York City, the School of Visual Arts, and printmaking at The Printmaking Workshop with Bob Blackburn as my mentor. My work has been exhibited throughout the USA, Europe, South America and the Middle East,” she said.
Join her for an opening reception on Saturday, June 3rd from 3 – 5 pm
