“Anyone can paint” - Artist Insights Jo Rance | Jackson's Art

Jo Rance's paintings of the English countryside are richly textured and use a contemporary palette of pastel-rich colours. In this film, she shares insights into her practice, including her jigsaw-like approach to composition and the importance of connecting with the natural world that inspires her. 0:00 “Anyone can paint” 0:11 “The dialogue between land and sky” 0:36 “All I ever intend to do is to provoke joy” 0:57 Introduction 1:19 “I was always the kid who wanted to draw at the table” 1:55 “Who doesn’t want to learn how to weave?” 2:11 “I keep coming back to the word, intuitive” 2:53 “We would spend days in the dye lab, picking out our colour palettes, then hours threading these looms up” 4:06 “I have this immediacy, the more you practice with the paint that you use, the more you can use it in ways that make the paintings look like your paintings” 5:33 “I will go in with accents, pastel pinks, lilacs, I love a bright red” 6:44 “Sometimes I feel like I have rose-tinted glasses on when I am seeing stuff, which immediately gives you this more vibrant colour palette and playfulness” 7:40 “I tried to create this whimsical sense of where the mountain meets the sky, making these sort of personified mountain and sky” 8:32 “I would happily paint the river by my house a thousand times, it's always going to be different” 9:43 “You are never going to get home from a walk in the outdoors and feel worse for it” 10:16 “The visual change in Spring is the most dramatic, and in turn the most inspirational for me as a painter” 10:58 “The core point of my painting practice, and my life as an artist, is these small moments of joy that make the world go around” 12:18 “I only really want to paint what I have actually seen, and what I’ve sat in, walked in” 13:19 “I deconstruct the landscape in my mind, before I start the painting, so I know what needs to come first” 15:19 “Going outside painting is like a muscle I am trying to flex” 18:11 “My sketchbook becomes a bank of visual knowledge that informs future work” 19:46 “I have been painting full-time since” 21:26 “Sometimes I will use a tiny bit of acrylic flow medium…it can make the whole experience a lot more glidey and frequent” 22:40 “All those tiny decisions in taking that one photo, I feel like create that authenticity in the painting because I have stopped in that moment” 24:10 “Feeling like you can be drawn in, I love that feeling…you can almost step into what I have painted” 26:16 “I stick to quite a traditional working day” 27:45 “To have any space to paint is an ultimate privilege in my mind” 29:12 “I am guilty of having a lot of reality TV on when I am painting” 29:50 “Natural bristle brushes are a huge part of my secondary painting process after I have laid out the flatter shapes of colour” 32:01 “A lot of the time, a good painting has had a very ugly stage, and that is really normal” 33:36 “It’s that just before moment, when you think, okay, no, we're done, I can leave this” 34:51 “I don’t think you can argue with David Hockney’s spirit and joy for landscape” 36:40 “If you are doing something that makes you happy and brings you joy, keep doing it” 37:43 Credits Shop art materials on our website: https://www.jacksonsart.com/colour/ac...
