Jill Doherty the Artist - Interview (Page 3)

-Page 3

9. What is the future of your style, how is it going to develop?

My work seems to be developing into more of a narrative style, entering a world of suggestion and glimpsing a more profound reality.

10. What are you working on at the moment?

I just finished a painting 'Discarded Adversities' which will be shown at The Mall Galleries in Trafalgar Square for part of the Society of Women Artists Annual Exhibition. Apart from that I am playing with some ideas which developed after visiting a museum in Berlin a few weeks ago. There were some babies preserved in jars, each with a curious disease. They fascinated me to view as they were an insight into something which you would never see in a living form as none of the babies would have survived with such extreme deformities. I want to recreate the intensities of these 'babies' but without representing their forms as such.

11. What tips do you have for other artists who want to get started?

Be passionate and confident about your work. Don’t give up on the things which you may find difficult as they will come with time and perseverance. Don't be afraid of approaching galleries; remember they need you as much as you need them. Just do your research first as to how you should approach individual galleries.

12. What have you done to promote yourself as an artist?

I find the promotion side of being an artist very difficult. However It needs to be done! I try and have shows in a wide variety of places, so they get viewed by a wide range of people. I send out press releases for my shows and participate annually at the Prelude Art Fair in Spitalfields market, which is a great spot for self promotion as you can personally meet the people who are interested in your work, its great for contacts and the distribution of flyers if I have a show coming up.

13. What do you do in your spare time e.g. hobbies?

Spare time is very rare, most things involve thinking about what I'm going to do next and how to go about what I'm doing at the moment! ...but no, I guess I enjoy a social drink or three and cycling on my special bike. A good game of Backgammon never goes amiss either to distract the wondering mind.

Breaking Art News

Headline: Is the art market in danger of collapse?

The major world stock markets have been increasing steadily over the last 60 years. Up until the early 1990s the increase in the stock markets were fairly stable, increasing at a steady rate. However, the stock markets experienced increased volatility after 1994 as a result of pressurised market conditions and the decrease in regulations attached to the London and New York stock markets. After 1994 we have experienced larger peaks and troughs than previous to this date. Click here for the rest of the story
