Alfons B Jasinski RSW

I work from figurative themes, which may develop into abstraction. I am interested in the landscapes and shorelines of places where I have lived and visited. In my work I try to capture the essence, atmosphere and feelings generated in me by these places, through my use of texture and colour. My work is executed in a variety of media, including Watercolour, Gouache, Acrylic and Soft Pastel.
