Shirley Anne Owen
Shirley Anne Owen is based in the seaside town of Penarth. She draws on the South Wales urban and rural landscape for her subjects, often including the people who live there. Many of the images are also linked to memories and poetry. Ideas develop from ink and charcoal drawings and are freely interpreted in acrylics, oils or mixed media. Her work is characterised by a freedom of expression which gives it a strong sense of vitality and light. As well as exhibiting regularly, Shirley has completed many private commissions and one for the Vale of Glamorgan Council.
