The Artist
Jennifer
Lockwood was born in Wetherby, West
Yorkshire in 1981and currently resides in Manchester city centre.
Jennifer took a keen interest in art at and early age. At the
age of 16 she gained an unconditional place at Leeds College
of Art and Design, where she studied 3-Dimensional Design. Here
she gained knowledge of all aspects of design. She then attended
the University of Lincoln where she carried on her interest
in Interior Design, then specialising in Museum and Exhibition
Design.
After leaving university she decided to start painting again,
in her spare time. She now uses her formal training to create
her abstract paintings with an organic twist.
Her paintings
have a fluid, flowing composition, which eases your eyes throughout
the paintings. With influences such as the human body and nature
its self, jennifer has unique way of expressing herself in her
paintings. This somehow gives you a warm feeling as the painting
wraps its self around you in a cocoon type effect. Jennifer
says:
"I
am keen to explore the use of colour to create striking pieces
of artwork. I like to use various media with my art, though
I must admit I am currently using acrylic on canvas. I love
the fact that you can achieve the texture and the vibrancy
of colours with them."
Jennifer
has had various small exhibitions in bars in and around Leeds
and Manchester. Her plans are to have a sole exhibition in the
near future.
