2021

About the Item

"There is something very evocative of childhood about a bluebell wood – I think one never forgets the first walk, seeing and smelling a bluebell wood for the first time…my paintings are meant to take you back to experience that delight and wonder one felt on first experiencing the woods in all their glory! My paintings hopefully resonate and inspire for a moment a spiritual transportation away from the busyness of life to another place where one feels at peace, is reminded of all that is important and feels alive and inspired by creation." Sarah Ollerenshaw is an artist with a background in fine art restoration. She studied Spanish and History of Art at Birmingham University and then took a postgraduate diploma at Christie’s Education which in turn led to an apprenticeship in restoration and conservation. Throughout her studies and restoration work, she has always painted and is largely self – taught. Despite her love for restoration it became clear that her passion for paint was moving in to a more personal direction and Sarah welcomed the gradual shift of spending more time in her studio in Wimbledon. Sarah’s paintings are worked loosely from photographs in her studio. They are executed with intensity and vigour using painterly bold marks, scratches and a range of palette knives. Her increasing interest is in how paint moves and how, depending on its placement, colour can either sing or disappear. The desired effect is a tension between abstraction yet achieving a photographic edge – something emotionally painterly yet real. The colourful rhythmic poetry and balance of her work combined with the workmanship results in paintings of artistic integrity that inspire connections between the past and present.

    Woman in a garden. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned. This work will be recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist currently in preparation. Jules Van Biesbroeck was the son of Jules Evariste van Biesbroeck, a painter of Ghent, but was born in Italy, in Portici, near Naples, while his parents were staying there.

His first painting, "The Shepherd" (French: Le pâtre), was sold at the Triennale in Ghent. In 1888, when he was only 15 years old, he made his debut at the "Salon des Champs-Elysées" in Paris with his monumental work "The Launch of the Argo" (French: Le lancement...
