Artists A-Z
Stephen J Owen
Exhibiting in the Great Hall will be local Welsh artist Stephen J Owen. The self taught Caernarfon born artist is also a regular exhibitor here at Plas Glyn y Weddw. He enjoyed art as a subject at school and was influenced and encouraged to paint by his art teacher William Selwyn. Stephen has his own unique style of painting; his passion continues to evolve and develop and he is constantly seeking inspiration from his surroundings. This new body of work has been influenced greatly by his recent move to Groeslon.
"It is strange how light and colour can change so dramatically from one place to the other, even if it's only within a couple of miles"
Included for the first time in this exhibition will be clay 3D pieces. After a visit to the Lowry Gallery recently Stephen was inspired by the famous artists interaction of people in his work. Wanting a change of scene, Stephen decided to produce a collection of one off clay pieces inspired by people around his local area.
"Originally made as a gift for my wife, these figures are only intended as a bit of fun. They capture images and moments that I see on my regular walks about the area"
By now Stephen's paintings are well known to many and are included in personal collections across Wales and further afield in Europe and America.
