Janette Byrne

Artist

 

Janette Byrne (Jb Art) is a local artist who graduated with a Masters in Fine Art at the University of Greater Manchester. She has exhibited widely in the UK and has had several works accepted to go through to the Royal Academy Summer exhibition … and has Sold there.                            
     Janette’s current work ethic is far removed from the detailed processes of completing Fine Art Degrees and by popular request she is enjoying painting frivolous flowers and animals… She hopes you enjoy her display.

Cyclamen

 

Cyclamen Sky is a serene study in poise and quiet beauty. The delicate, sweeping petals of the cyclamen unfold like ribbons in the breeze, their soft blush and ivory tones set against a vivid, sky-blue background.

There’s a gentle rhythm here. The graceful arcs of stem and bud dancing upward with a quiet, contemplative energy.

Painted in acrylics on canvas board and measuring 27 x 27 cm, this piece is framed in clean white that lifts the natural palette. Cyclamen, with their distinctive nodding blooms, have long been associated with inner strength, devotion, and understated grace. This painting captures that spirit perfectly — a sense of calm resilience held within soft, flowing forms.

Floral Display

 

A joyful explosion of colour, this oil-on-board painting celebrates the abundant beauty of a freshly gathered bouquet. Janette Byrne’s expressive brushwork and bold colour palette evoke a spontaneous, almost celebratory energy—as though the flowers are still dancing from being placed in the soft blue background and rounded vase.

The art creates a calm contrast, allowing the florals to sing with life.

Fuchsia Tangle

 

An exuberant celebration of nature’s drama, Fuchsia Tangle draws the viewer into a vibrant undergrowth where oversized fuchsia blooms hang like whispered secrets among thick, wild grasses.

The artist’s expressive brushwork and bold colour palette turn this delicate flower into something untamed and defiant.

Each pink petal edged in crimson and softened with lilac pops against a backdrop of sun-soaked greens and flashes of aqua, suggesting a humid garden or lush tropical border alive with energy.

Painted in acrylic on canvas board and set in a clean white frame with a subtle blush mount, this 5×7″ piece delivers colour therapy in compact form

Profile Image of Jackie by Ian Fletcher 

Jackie Williams is a Lancashire-based painter whose work explores the shifting energies of landscape and light. Working primarily in acrylic, she creates expressive, textural pieces that move between abstraction and realism — often inspired by the wild moorlands, coastal paths, and garden spaces around her home in Heapey, near Chorley. Her practice balances instinctive mark-making with an emotional response to nature, capturing fleeting moments of weather, movement, and memory.

Through her online space heapeygallery.co.uk and her social media presence, Jackie shares not just her finished pieces but glimpses into her creative process, inviting collectors and art lovers into the rhythm of her artistic life. Whether working on large-scale canvases or more intimate studies, her palette ranges from the soft and earthy to the bold and radiant — always with a strong sense of atmosphere and place.

Jackie’s work has found homes across the UK and continues to resonate with those who are drawn to the beauty in the everyday landscape. She is one of the exhibiting artists featured in the Gathered Works Summer Exhibition at BL6 Studios in Horwich, 2025.

Summer Breeze

 

Summer Breeze lives up to its name. This is a bold, expressive painting that captures that exact moment when a warm wind sweeps through a field of flowers, everything moving, dancing, shifting.

Jackie doesn’t paint every petal or stem. She doesn’t need to. What she gives us is the feeling of it. The energy, the light, the sheer joy of a summer’s day set loose on canvas.

There’s no tidy structure here, and that’s the point. This is nature in motion. Rich golds, deep purples, burnt orange and flashes of green all clash and blend with intent. It’s wild and vibrant, but controlled enough that it draws you in rather than overwhelms. There’s a rhythm to it. A hum. Stand in front of it and you almost expect the scent of flowers to hit you.

Something about it just lifts the atmosphere. For collectors who like their artwork to make an entrance, Summer Breeze doesn’t whisper. It walks in, opens the windows, and lets the light flood in.

Price: £495
Presentation: Unframed, ready to hang

Dunes

 

There’s something timeless about this piece.

No buildings, no people, no distractions. Just space. Just light and earth. It’s got that raw honesty that reminds you of early morning walks or the hush before a weather change.

The colours are beautifully restrained — soft greys, ochres, hints of slate and salt. Williams hasn’t overworked it. You can see the brushstrokes, feel the texture, almost smell the sea air.
