First, a little about the gallery itself. Life: Full Colour is an independent gallery in the heart of Caernarfon, North Wales. It was founded by serial entrepreneur Sara McKee in 2020.

In addition, within the gallery’s immediate vicinity are many fabulous food venues, making for a great day out!
‘The Day We Went to …’
Jill Jones has become a renowned Welsh artist is recent years. She is based in Pembrokeshire and the stunning scenery that surrounds her inspires and informs her work. The title of her upcoming exhibition is the rather whimsical “The Day We Went To …'”.
“The Day We Went To..” reflects happy summer day trips and the magical times making memories on that special day out. Whether an unplanned excursion or a long-awaited trip the evocation remains.
Perhaps it’s catching sight of a dolphin or spotting a fishing boat tucked away in the shade of a boat-shed. Maybe the simple joys of an ice cream on the beach. Jill has conjured seascapes, landscapes, lobster pots and even net-buoys that may feature on happiest days of our lives.
The Life: Full Colour Exhibition is mostly in acrylics, with just one or two in oils, the collection includes tiny pieces you can enjoy in ones, twos or even threes. In addition, you’ll find large statement pieces that bring you in, and which you can literally sit in front of and meditate. Ideal for the more restful rooms in your house.
Jill says, “Using as my inspiration wonderfully warm and fuzzy memories; a cycle or car ride through flower-laden, insect-buzzed, countryside hedgerows or remembering the booming swell of the restless ocean, ‘The Day We Went To…’ exemplifies all our happy joys in the simplest of things, even in the rain!.”
