Irene Jones

Irene Jones and ‘To Give’ at The Hybrid Gallery – Honiton

This is the amazingly talented artist Irene Jones next to our latest acquisition. It’s called ‘To Give’ and is our present from us to the new house. This was the opening of Irene’s show and the first time we have met her. She is such a lovely bubbly person and I’m hoping to get some great images of her working one day at her studio in North Devon. We arrived only about 20 minutes after her show opened today and so many of her pieces had sold already but although we quickly established a shortlist of three ‘To Give’ won the vote and Irene kindly posed for the iPhone next to it!

It’s actually been a couple of days meeting talented artists from Devon. Yesterday we shot a property in Torquay without previously knowing that it was the home of artist Kelvin Halloran. It’s always great to discover a new artist whose work you take to immediately and yesterday was certainly no exception. I have a sneaking feeling it won’t be long before one of his pieces will be gracing a wall at the new house as well.
