Her prize-winning work, &#8216;Mrs Damon and Mrs Healey (version 2)&#8217; is a heart-warming portrayal of two ladies sharing a laugh in a hairdressers. The painting is exemplary in showing the artist&#8217;s technical skill, with masterful handling of paint to describe all the textures found on all the surfaces within the composition, from the the patterned gowns the ladies are wearing to their skin tones. I wanted to find out more about Teri Anne Scoble&#8217;s characterful paintings.<\/h5>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1301903\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1301903\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC_5359-e1496316612813.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1301903 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/DSC_5359-e1496316612813.jpeg\" alt=\"Teri Anne Scoble at the easel (Photo credit: Patrick Tsui)\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1623\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1301903\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teri Anne Scoble at the easel (Photo credit: Patrick Tsui)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Lisa: What was the motivation behind painting a second version of Mrs Damon and Mrs Healey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Teri Anne: The second version of Mrs. D and Mrs. H came about as a commission. The daughter-in-law of Mrs. Damon wanted to buy the first painting when it was on display in the 2013 BP Portrait Award exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, London. As it had already sold to an art collector via the NPG, I offered to paint a second version. Da Vinci painted two versions of \u2019The Virgin of the Rocks\u2019 so why not? I spent more time on the second painting and it is much more detailed. Mrs. Damon\u2019s family lent me personal items to put into her handbag. With kind permission of the Damons, the painting will be on display in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.burghhouse.org.uk\/whats-on\/exhibitions\/women-in-art-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Women in Art<\/a> Exhibition to be held at Burgh House, Hampstead from 27th June until 4th July.

Would you say that your paintings are more concerned with capturing people within a specific moment rather than a more timeless portrayal of their identity?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Teri Anne: I love to paint snapshots of peoples\u2019 lives. In my portrait of the two brothers in \u2018The 271 to Arsenal\u2019 I hoped to capture what Caravaggio caught in his painting \u2018The Cardsharps&#8217;, where there is an interaction between two boys but you know that a lot more is going on, and you\u2019re left speculating on what might happen next. I like to make the viewer wonder what someone might be saying or what they\u2019re about to do. A comment on twitter about the \u2019271\u2019 <\/em><em>painting said that the boys sitting at the bus stop looked as though they might spring up at any moment and walk out of the painting. That really pleased me.<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1305028\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1305028\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/The-271-to-Arsenal-BP-Portrait-Award-2016-1-e1496582926660.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1305028 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/The-271-to-Arsenal-BP-Portrait-Award-2016-1-e1496582926660.jpg\" alt=\"'The 271 to Arsenal' Teri Anne Scoble Oil on gessoed panel, 30cm x 40cm , 2016 (Included in the BP Portrait Award 2016)\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1439\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1305028\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8216;The 271 to Arsenal&#8217;<br \/> Teri Anne Scoble<br \/> Oil on gessoed panel, 30cm x 40cm , 2016 (Included in the BP Portrait Award 2016)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Lisa: You have been shortlisted for the BP Portrait Award twice, and now you have been shortlisted for the Jackson\u2019s Painting Prize too! How important is recognition for your work through prizes and awards?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Teri Anne:\u00a0Recognition through prizes and awards helps to value and endorse an artist\u2019s work. Many a painting would remain long unfinished without the carrot of an exhibition or painting prize for the artist to go for. Painting prizes such as Jackson\u2019s encourage artists to get creating and enter.

I looked upon my work as a choreographer in very much the same way as I do painting. The stage being my canvas &#8211; the blocking in of a routine \u2013 the steps and combinations &#8211; with the dancers and costumes providing the line and colour. I once choreographed and danced out of a Millais painting on TV! My dancing career hasn\u2019t entirely come to an end. I still get called in on the odd production when old codger dancers are required. I have also recently been working on a series of Tap performance art work.

Do you ever mix mediums into the paint and do you have any tips you can share about getting the best results from your paint?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Teri Anne: The qualities I love about oil paint are necessary to my way of working. I paint very thinly building up many layers. It is a slow process as each layer needs to dry. I strive to achieve a translucency by glazing on skin tones in different layers, as though I am painting actual layers of skin from the bone out. I use 50\/50 mix of linseed and turpentine. I also like to build up texture and have been recently using beeswax. I use eco and low odour solvent products and animal friendly synthetic brushes.<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1301905\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1301905\" style=\"width: 1080px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1301905 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593.jpg\" alt=\"Teri Anne Scoble and her painting 'The 271 to Arsenal'\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593-210x300.jpg 210w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593-768x1099.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593-716x1024.jpg 716w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593-620x887.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_1435-e1496316682593-940x1345.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1301905\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teri Anne Scoble and her painting &#8216;The 271 to Arsenal&#8217; (Photo credit: Lesley Scoble)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Lisa: What do you consider are the best and most difficult aspects of being a painter?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Teri Anne:\u00a0The best aspect of being a painter is that whilst actually painting, you are living in the moment.
