Serenissima – untitled, Venice
This is one of a series of impressions of the Arsenale area of Venice. The impact of sun and shade, of crumbling heritage and contemporary interventions, makes this an amazing location to paint. This painting, which does not attempt to replicate the built environment, reflects and responds to the power of the place.

La Serenissima
The countryside around Jon's home offers continual opportunities to explore the more contained environment of Oxfordshire, whether in places such as Foxcombe Woods, where the ponds and paths are carved out of the trees or the large fields that surround small villages and homesteads.
His views of the hills of Devon, the Pennines and Scotland reflect the changes in weather and the different seasons.
The Artist
Jon Rowland
Jon draws on locations that have played a part in his ‘artistic journey’, exploring space, light and colour, and it is this juxtaposition. He manipulates emerging abstraction to express the essence of a particular ‘place’.
