A lot of the films chosen are often done so with a vintage aesthetic, a love for vintage/antique furniture and decor. Second to memory, Jones's work is about space; the painted, the internalised and projected in depiction.

This painting explores bittersweet recollections that don't seem to budge; an amalgamation of humorous and mortifying moments in retrospect and all a result of working as a receptionist.

This painting was part of the exhibition 'Painting Made Recently in Wales', Lle Projects, Bay Art, Cardiff. less
