Jacqueline Druryis a professional artist living and working in the UK.

“Working mainly in oils on canvas but also using acrylics and different mediums depending upon the project I paint stories from the experiences I have from day to day.

Narrative figure painting is probably the best description of the type of work I do. So a painting will not be a direct self portrait but a depiction of an experience and how I felt or reacted to it. The figures contained within the picture may be real or imagined and the element of wit is never far from my work.”

Jacqueline attended Gray’s School of Art in Aberdeen (BA Hons) from 1992 until 1996 and then Norwich School of Art (MA Fine Art) from 1997 until 1998.

She has exhibited in England, Scotland and Portugal and her work is held in permanent collections in Scotland and Portugal.

“I don’t post many images of my work online because I don’t want my work copied and used without my knowledge. Therefore there are very few images to be found online. Solid drawing skills form the basis for all my works whether it be drawing the figure, an urban scene or a rural dwelling."

Previous commissions include oil paintings of boats at sea, watercolours of country houses, pen drawings of hotels and cartoon character wall murals.” --Redrupert (talk) 21:00, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
