About:

Oliver Jones’s drawings are principally concerned with how flesh resides within the public conscious and how its image is engaged and shaped by industry and the media.

It adopts similar techniques used in these spheres in order to ‘re-advertise’ an image of flesh that is more commonly experienced in reality and the most recent work aims to interrogate the routines and rituals, commonly undertaken to maintain and improve this visage.

The drawings are rendered in coloured pastel on paper, one reason being that their fragile qualities reflect the delicate nature of flesh but most importantly the way the pigments are applied holds very close parallels with the way one applies cosmetic products, touches and handles their own skin.

Colour Chart Guidance

We believe the colours in our web based colour chart are a faithful representation of our pastel range. But with any colours portrayed on the internet, there’s a whole heap of variables which mean that what you see, may not be what we see. That said, there’s some things that can be done to mitigate some of the variance.

Mobile phone and tablet screens tend to be pretty good for colour, so they’re always worth using, when viewing our colour chart.

We hate to say it, but cheaper computer displays, including laptops, can be rather hit and miss, in both colour and contrast, so they might not reveal the depth of the colour, as well as the true tone.

If you’re really keen on getting your computer up to speed on colour representation, you can use a calibration device to reach your display's fullest potential.

With all that said, if you think we’re way off the mark with any of the colours then, by all means let us know, and we’ll give it another shot.
