Artist of the Week - June Green
"Moonlight Forest" by June Green
This week we have had June Green as our Artist of the Week.
June is a self taught artist and calligrapher. She worked as a
professional calligrapher for five years alongside a wedding photographer
before her children were born. Now that her children are grown up, she finds
she has more time to devote to her main creative outlet of painting.
June says:
"My favourite art is Chinese brush painting, Japanese
Sumi-e painting and last but not least, Trompe L'oeil. I try to incorporate a
flavour of these styles into my paintings, working mainly in Acrylics as I find
this medium to be so versatile. All my paintings feature my first name signed
in Chinese, to symbolise my love of eastern art."
June also enjoys working with wax in encaustic
painting.....such as the one picture above.
