Saturday Telegraph Art Review “R.A. Small South Room”
“The influences and inspirations in Hemione Owen's work are enriched
by her acknowledgement of what came before - what brought her to this point.
Her tendency is not to reject the old in favour of the new but rather to build upon it.
Her curiosity, energy and adventurous spirit combined with this respect for the
past explain, at least in part, the continuous development of her work.
The beginning was the Byam Shaw in the 1970s where she concentrated, first of all
on print-making and then moved towards watercolour, pastel, and oil.
Her fascination with colour continues - the changing mood/atmosphere of
the landscape, form and composition within the landscape and still life has prompted other
explorations resulting in some of her most exciting paintings.
Above all there is an honesty about the work of Hermione Owen - whatever the influence or inspiration, her vision remains entirely her own.”
