JEANNETTE EDWARDS
![]() | South AfricaLives in Durban and is a member of the North Coast Art Group, where she won the Group's Award for Best Painting in 2003. She enjoys both watercolours and oils.She lived in London for a few years before starting a family and whilst there camped extensively round Europe. The varied scenery and galleries in Europe and the UK inspired her interest in art, but bringing up her two daughters took priority and it is only recently she has been able to concentrate on paintings. She loves depicting the beauty of the Greek Islands, having spent more than 10 years enjoying yachting holidays round the Ionian Islands. Travelling has made her realise how privileged we are to live in South Africa with its colourful abundance of wild life, birds and flora, and the awesome scenery. Being an animal-lover, and concerned that Man is destroying not only the environment but the animals we have been blessed with, has led her to try and capture nature through the medium of art. |
