Dear Jeanette Barnes put on a show of her drawings at TOTO lower gallery in EC1 just recently and I was glad to have another meeting with her (and others) and see her work once more. A rare thing that someone should stick with conventional, figurative methods in this fast changing post-modern world of ours. Jeanette produces large charcoal drawings of ‘London Sites’ as her show was titled, she does these based on sketches she makes from observation. My good friend Mr. I Sherry liked the sense of movement in Jeanette’s work and mentioned both Piranese and Muirhead-Bone whilst we looked at the work. I hope to see more of Jeanette’s work in the near future.
