Frances Treanor, who was born in Cornwall of Irish ancestry, is a graduate of Specialising in pastel, she is able to express her interest in
the medium as a complete art form, which can be both sensuously intimate and
immediate. She believes its role in therapy and potentiality of expression is
enormous but largely unexplored. There are two sides to her art; the private, feminist one and the
more extrovert. The latter surfaces in richly hued,
vibrant flower and urban landscape pastels sometimes framed with borders
bursting with decorative energy. The former often manifests itself as a large
collage or a small oil pastel drawing, which illustrates a serious point
about a human relationship, in a witty, uncensored manner, based on ancient
mythology. She has won many awards and commissions from private, corporate
and public sectors and her paintings are exhibited widely and published
throughout |
