Overview

"In these new paintings, I have returned to a more representational approach, having worked almost entirely abstractly for several years. But rather than a backward step - this feels like an exciting marrying of the two genres. Whilst the language is clear in terms of sea, sky, rocks, and land - the process is still all about the paint itself: how it moves, flows, and builds layer upon layer. I have experimented with new techniques and ideas, the challenge being to get that balance between the poetic evocation of a place - the  weather, movement, and energy while celebrating the process of painting."

Born in 1962, Surrey-based painter Joanne Last originally trained as a classical pianist before undertaking a foundation course at Putney School of Art & Design. Her work has been exhibited across the UK and abroad and has been selected for major exhibitions at the Mall Galleries, London including the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours, Royal Institute of Oil Painters, The Pastel Society, and The Society of Women Artists.

Last's work hangs in private and corporate collections throughout the world. Some notable commissions include Sandy Lane Hotel, Barbados; Carlton Tower Hotel, Knightsbridge; Roman Abramovich's yacht The Eclipse; and numerous private yachts. She has been represented exclusively in Cornwall by the Porthminster Gallery since 2016.
