Charles Jones (b.1836) Paintings
British, 1836-1892
Charles Jones (1836-1902) graduated from the Royal College of Art and pursued a successful career as an award-winning artist. Among his achievements was being awarded a gold medal at the prestigious Crystal Palace exhibition, 1890. Jones was renowned for his particular style painting cows, sheep, horses and dogs. Among his best works are Highland cows and flocks of sheep in mountain scenes. His work includes large paintings, six feet in length, with woolly cows in expansive landscapes.
Most of his career he worked in London, though he was Welsh by birth, and often painted Scottish scenes. His work has been well represented in art galleries, art museums and collections in the UK, including the National Library and National Museum of Wales, Royal Cornwall Museum, Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Museum, Wolverhampton Art Gallery, Harris Museum, the National Trust and more.
His work is signed with a distinctive monogram, CJ, often in red with the date of the work. He flourished from 1860s to 1890s. His work has been sold at auction many times,including Christie's and Bonhams.(Biography provided by Saltire Gallerie)

Exhibition Size Painting
A fantastic exhibition sized landscape painting of sheep on a cliff top by the coast by Charles ‘Sheep’ Jones. At the time he produced this painting, Jones was living at Heathercroft, Balham Hill in London. Given the size and quality of the work it was most likely an exhibition piece. The topography and landscape suggest that this is the Dorset coast, one of his favourite places to paint.
Charles Jones was an animal painter who was born in Stepney, London in 1836. He was the son of the artist Samuel John Egbert Jones (1797-1861) and Dinah Jones. He lived with his parents and 9 siblings in Mile End and was a pupil of his father. In September 1859, he married Frances Rosalinda Downe, who was born in America. His son Arthur Bertram Loud (1863-1930) also became an artist. They lived at 12 Hayes Place, Lisson Grove from where he made his debut in London at the Royal Academy in 1861. He also exhibited at the British Institution, Suffolk Street, New Watercolour Society, Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours.
By 1867, he had become a successful artist and they had moved to 7 Paragon Place, Brixton Hill. From 1874 he lived at Heathercroft, Balham Hill where he spent the rest of his life. Jones became well known for specialising in paintings of sheep, cattle and deer in landscape settings. He spent his time travelling around visiting areas such as Devon, Dorset, Kent, Sussex and the Highlands. However, it is for his skilful painting of sheep that he is perhaps best known, and for which earned him the nickname of ‘Sheep’ Jones.
As well as the major London galleries, he also exhibited provincially at various locations including: the Royal Cambrian Academy where he was elected a member in 1886, the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts, Manchester City Art Gallery, Royal Hibernian Academy, Royal Society of British Artists, Birmingham and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Some of the smaller more intimate galleries he exhibited at were Arthur Tooth & Sons and Thomas...

Whilst largely self- taught, Blinks would have learnt basic anatomy from working with his father, but he also spent time at Tattersalls canine and horse auctions...
