Jumping Well

 Kieron Williamson | Oil on Board | 16 x 17 inches 

About the painting:

“I have always had such admiration of paintings of the races and for years I have always wanted to undertake one of my own of racehorses taking a fence. It was slightly daunting taking on such a noble subject … but I feel that I have done it justice.” Kieron

The medium:

“The one medium that I have found the most challenging is oil. For years I knew absolutely nothing about this medium, despite having three introductory lessons at age six!

It is only through trial and error, coupled with extensive research online, that I have finally found a way of working that suits me.
If I had to use only one medium for the rest of my life, I would most definitely use oil. I love the historic importance of them, the rich smell of the paint and the fact that no matter what the subject, the medium is suitable … it is just so diverse.
I could use a glazing technique and my work could look flawless and soft with no visible brushstrokes, or heavy impasto layered on a canvas with a palette knife with paint straight from the tube. I love that fact that I can do absolutely anything with it, whatever the subject needs to be captured and whatever way I feel like working.” Kieron
