Jill Confavreux trained as a mature student at Wimbledon School of Art and at St Martins School of Art, London. She describes her approach as: 'Colour and the interaction of colour relationships is the very essence of my work. I enrich the surface of my paintings, whether they are on paper or canvas, with colour and texture, using a variety of media. My subject matter is about the spirit of nature.' Acrylic paint, tissue paper and mono printing were used to enrich the surface of this painting. During the process the painting was torn into five pieces and reassembled. Images of trees and saplings arose through the process of the free spirit of painting.
