“In front of his painting of the sea you can absolutely contemplate for hours. Vernon doesn’t paint the sea, he reproduces it. All of his paintings are small projects about exploring the movements, the deepness, the density and the light of the waves. In front of his pieces you must stand still in complete silence and then you can really hear the roaming of the sea. The sea is the ultimate inspiration which is in the centre of his artistic creation. The water is the element in constant movement and with constant rebirth. Sometimes is mute and deep as the human soul. Jones’ sea is vast as a mirror where we can observe our own reflection, our lives and existence. The sea narrates the human destiny and represents eternity. On the canvas the waves are alive in desperate pursuit of tranquility. Jones’ art reflects freshness and obvious dedication to smallest details. His technique is precise and his artistic realism holds great respect toward the sea and its greatness. The respect toward the nature is “photographed” and is the core inspiration for the artist. Vernon Jones’s art can be defined as hyper-realistic, even though this definition might be restraining, as the artist doesn’t wish to paint the spontaneous nature of the water and the waves. He wants to convey the utmost essence of the sea and its greatness.”

This was written some years ago and sums up the essence of what I have posted as examples of my art.
I am constantly exploring now other ways to convey the sea, especially the inter weaving of realism and expressionism.
