Autorenporträt
Jacqueline Mallinson (née Wearing) is a talented Littlehampton woman. She is the latest talented local artist to have their work exhibited in the reception area of Littlehampton Museum. Jacqueline has always painted and likes to experiment with different media, though oil painting is her favourite. Her approach to her work is one of an act of discovery rather than doing anything pre-planned. The work on display in this exhibition covers the period from the sixties onwards and indicates some of the diversity of her approach. Jacqueline was educated at Chichester High School for girls and Portsmouth Municipal College. In her forties, she took a degree in psychology and behavioural sciences. She has lived in London, West Yokshire, where she took her degree, and West Sussex. She has always been an avid reader. She has had a small book of her poems published as well as a book of her paintings. She has a daughter, a son and six grandchildren.
