Oils 1970-2000

Jenny’s still life work explores her thinking about the basic elements of matter (cones, cubes and spheres) by depicting a small number of forms and objects in relation to each other and to the spaces between them.

Vanitas

The stone paintings connect simple objects and the larger world around them. Flowers and other decaying objects nod to the Vanitas tradition while retaining the connection to natural geometry.  The earliest of these, Earth Story, 1985, has alternative titles ‘Earth, Moon’ and  ‘Earth Vanitas’.
