Winter Oak Painting by Irene Butcher

I am a landscape painter and printmaker living in London. I have been selling my art for over thirty years and have attended many courses and worked under artist mentors since the '70's.
My favourite media is oil on canvas. Whatever excites my attention usually involves the elements, nature and my passion for both capturing the essence of the subject and translating it in paint or original prints; drypoint etching or mezzotint. It all starts with drawing, my studies leading to paintings or limited edition prints. Sometimes I work with just charcoal on paper or experiment with mixed media.
My subjects often centre around where I live and my favourite places to visit such as the wonderfully rugged coast of Pembrokeshire, South Wales.
I have had many mixed exhibitions, two solo exhibitions and my works have been published both in books and magazines and cards.
