Iris - Marazion is a stunning original oil on canvas painting by Cornwall artist Joan Speight (British b.1941).
A fresh choice of colour palette combined with the excellent use of impasto gives the painting a real depth and texture particularly in the harsh shadows created by the irises that are beautifully balanced by the soft sea and sky in the background.

About the artist:
Joan is a successful landscape artist who lives and works in Marazion.
She started painting originally as a hobby when first arrived in Cornwall and was encouraged by her tutor, Mercedes Smith, to take her paintings to the local galleries.
Joan works primarily in oils, occasionally in acrylics, and usually takes her inspiration from the views of West Cornwall, Mount’s Bay, the Penzance hillside and the wild windblown trees and hedgerows along the Cornish coast.
