About the Item

ZENNOR COASTAL Size: 54 x 54 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas A brilliantly executed contemporary landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones. The painting presents a sweeping view of the rugged Cornish coastline near Zennor, interpreted through a loose, expressive style. The artist uses a subdued, cool palette of soft greys, whites, muted greens, and hints of blue to evoke the windswept drama of this natural landscape. Foreground brushstrokes suggest rocky outcrops and coastal vegetation, leading the eye toward a winding shoreline or inlet that curves through the midground. The hills and cliffs in the distance are rendered in hazy, blended tones that capture the atmospheric light and shifting weather typical of Cornwall. The sky, expansive and heavy with cloud, adds a moody, contemplative tone to the scene. Overall, the composition conveys a strong sense of place—wild, remote, and elemental—while maintaining a lyrical abstraction that emphasises feeling over detail. This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition. Born in 1974, Nicky Knill Jones is a passionate artist whose work celebrates the dynamic interplay of light, colour, and the natural world. Through her photography and paintings, she captures the beauty and energy of ever-changing landscapes, focusing on the dramatic coastlines of Cornwall and Devon. Fascinated by the sea, weather fronts, cloud formations, and expansive skies, Nicky’s art reflects her deep connection to nature. Her work conveys the raw power and fleeting moments of the natural world, where bold, fresh, and instinctual brushstrokes bring her vision to life. Each painting is characterful, imbued with the emotion and vitality of her surroundings. A graduate of Kingston University, where she studied Art, Nicky has been painting since her early years. Over time, she has honed her skills and developed a distinctive style, working both from her studio and en plein air, immersing herself in the landscapes she loves to portray. With a keen eye for detail and a unique ability to convey movement and atmosphere, Nicky Knill Jones creates works that resonate deeply with her audience, offering a glimpse into the untamed beauty of the British coastline.
