About
Jan Gaska was a Printmaker in Residence at South Hill Park between 2004 and 2006. Printmaking had been his main concern throughout his undergraduate and post-graduate study. In 2010 he became interested in the immediacy of oil paint, finding it an accommodating medium to work with. Catastrophe struck just before Christmas in 2012, when Jan’s studio burnt down. Without a studio, Jan started to paint ‘en plein air’ in the countryside around his home.
Gaska found direct observation an organic approach to painting which displayed the honesty and freshness he was seeking. He has continually built on his understanding of observational painting and drawing to include portraiture. In 2016 he was accepted on a drawing scholarship with the New English Art Club based at the Mall galleries.
