Celebrate Wales; Rugby success by getting yourself a Welsh work of art at the Royal Cambrian Academy in Conwy.

‎'Having trained and practised as an architect, it is natural that the built environment should figure large in my output of drawings, paintings and etchings. My approach to my work is intuitive and empirical. Each work is an experiment with the medium and with the interpretation of the subject. Inevitably, some serials do occur. I am fascinated by the pattems created by buildings (mostly) and of the world around me, and through my work, hopefully, help others to see it as I do.' 
Tom Jones RCA: Exhibition runs at the Royal Cambrian-Academy in Conwy until 30th October. Open Tuesday - Saturday 11 - 5, Sunday 11 - 4. Admission FREE.

'Painters express themselves visually and in my case , my tubes of paint and bottles of ink serve my purpose rather than words. Whatever critics may say about my work, I hope that they may say it conveys honesty and compassion' Karel Lek MBE, RCA
