Online Gallery: Cyprus Footnotes

About the Cyprus Series
This series of drawings and paintings has come from visits Janet Patterson made to Cyprus in 2003 and 2004. Initially Patterson went to work in a studio in Limassol in November 2003, her first visit to Cyprus, and she became fascinated by the landscape and atmosphere, the heat and the light.

The centrepiece of the exhibition comprises three large drawings which she worked on in the studio in Cyprus. She also made notes and took photographs, and on her return to her London studio has worked from these. The exhibition is called 'Cyprus Footnotes' because the material other than the original drawings has been formed entirely from recollections, memories and reference material collected while there. They are the 'footnotes' to the large drawings - they add colour and description, and an indigenous feeling of the environment there.
