Mike Jones
Born in Neath in 1941. Mike Jones lives and
paints in the Swansea Valley . He has been a regular exhibitor
across Wales over the last decade and has gained a reputation
for his
evocative portrayals of the Welsh landscape and its people.
Will Roberts, June 1997:-
“
I`ve been familiar with Mike Jones`s work for some years,
finding it always good, always imaginative. A talented and
sensitive worker, self-taught, but has studied well without
help or other guidance. Recent work of his has shown great
progress and is indeed, in my view, first class. He must
stand well now along with the better Welsh painters.”
Josef Herman, OBE, RA, August 1998 :-
Josef Herman also thought highly of this Welsh artist. He
said, “I am impressed with the textures of his oil
pastels. The figures in black and white stay on in my mind
. Like most Welshmen I know, he is very modest, so I will
spill it out – he is extremely gifted .”
