jenni stuart artist
Bristol
Jenni's work incorporating a bigger sense of the abstract, self expression and a
little bit of the landscape. The abstract comes from love of the outdoors, the
sea, her Cornish upbringing and Jenni’s dyslexic tendencies. With being so
visual I carry this with me and find a need to put it somewhere which is down in
a creative way.Jenni often finishes her work with thicker heavier lines and this
is a nod towards the line and text she finds so difficult to make sense of when
reading. Jenni sees in pictures and finds that gathering information from her
surrounding is easy to implement into her painting. The narrative here explains
that colours are the confusion, often when its overwhelmingly busy and ‘noisy’.
Jenni declares ‘it is often misunderstood, the amount of brain power needed to
stay focused, it is exhausting, art is natural to me and defuses that struggle
and expectation of something that comes easy to others, reading. At other times
Jenni likes to take her work right back to her routes and her childhood
experiences. Her memories in colour, source materials from trips out, family
time and conversation. Often starting two or three pieces are a time, mainly
works in acrylics applying oil bar drawings on top of space and colour.
