I found James Bartholomew’s work very exciting! He uses pastel and watercolour to evoke his dreamy imagery which is mostly landscape or animal inspired.
Jo Taylor
I discovered Jo Taylor’s work in college when a teacher introduced me to Jo’s equestrian paintings. The colours and painstaking attention to detail are stunning and never fail to capture the imagination. There is a very nicely written review by John Ross where he describes her spectacular flare for drawing ‘horseness’.
