Jean Noble RI SWA — ‘Released’, Original Abstract Acrylic Painting, 2015

Released is an original abstract painting by British artist Jean Noble RI SWA, exhibited at London’s Mall Galleries during the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours’ 2015 annual exhibition.

Combining architectural forms with expressive mark-making, the composition balances blues, greys and muted ochre against a central expanse of white and striking accents of red. Its richly worked surface reveals overlapping passages of colour, scratched outlines and the artist’s intuitive approach to abstraction.

Noble is a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours and the Society of Women Artists. Her artistic education includes Loughborough College of Art, Kingston University, Central Saint Martins and the Slade School of Fine Art. Her practice explores the relationship between observation and abstraction, with London’s urban landscape, particularly the Thames and Docklands, providing an important source of inspiration.

The painting retains its original Mall Galleries exhibition label, recording the artist, title, medium and original exhibition price. This documented exhibition history provides an interesting connection to London’s contemporary art scene.

Presented in a substantial white box frame that has been sympathetically refreshed, the painting combines expressive colour and texture with a strong contemporary architectural presence.
