About the Artist:
Born in Neath, West Glamorgan, in 1941, Mike Jones lives and paints in the Swansea Valley and has earned his reputation for evocative portrayals of the Welsh landscape and its people. His impressive interpretations range from the fishing boats in the docks of Swansea to the isolated hill farms in the valley and the Black Mountains.
Mike Jones has exhibited widely throughout Wales for the last ten years. Although essentially self-taught, Mike has a drive to expand his knowledge and to push the boundaries of his work.
He is constantly looking to evolve and this is surely the sign of an important contribution to the contemporary art scene in Wales.

I've been familiar with Mike Jones’ work for some years, finding it always good, always imaginative. A talented and sensitive worker, self-taught, but has studied well without help or other guidance. Recent work of his has shown great progress and is, indeed, in my view, first class. He must stand well now along with the better Welsh painters".

also thought highly of this Welsh artist, he said, “I am impressed with the textures of his oil pastels. The figures in black and white stay on in my mind. I am glad to learn that the Albany Gallery ( in Cardiff ) are giving him an exhibition. Like most Welshmen I know, he is very modest, so I will spill it out - he is extremely gifted.” ( Josef Herman OBE, RA August 1998)
