Whether in the streets of his own north London, or the industrial-coloured blacks and greys of the Cornish landscape and the English coast, Jonas Plosky's highly appealing and original paintings have a style and subject that are unmistakably his own.
Plosky studied at Hornsey College of Art before leaving to become a designer and illustrator. He exhibited frequently at the Royal Academy and the Royal Society of British Artists and his work can be found in the permanent collections of Glasgow Art Gallery, the National Library of Wales and the University of Portland, Maine, USA.
