Jackie Griffiths

Someone once asked me when and why did I start to draw. I think the honest answer to that is I really don't know!. I started drawing when my Dad taught me how to hold a pencil - before I started school! and I've carried on over the years ever since. I did an art and design foundation course at Bradford, then went on to get a degree in Graphic Design in Hull. I ended up in the printing and marketing industry where I have earned my keep for the last 25 years or so. Call it a mid life crisis if you want(!) but a few years ago I woke up one morning and realised 25 years had passed me by and I wasn't making full use of the talent (people tell me) I have for art - I had an unsurpressable urge to get back to 'my roots' and so I made a change to working part-time so that I could start doing art again. After a life of being ruled by time, meeting deadlines in print and design, I love the way that I lose myself when I'm painting and drawing - I lose all sense of time and place and it makes me feel that I have a purpose. You can't put a price on that!
