Jenny Wren

Comments

Love your collage!!

Jenny this is so beautiful. Love all the individual mediums used in this way to create the work of art it is. The gold is gorgeous! A title that came to mind which has a connection to you, the bird and the woman is…Jenny Wren…..a name which I know this bird as.

That's exquisite Jenny. I love the contrast between the simplified drawing of the young woman and the collage.

Love this Jenny, so unusual and beautiful.

Wow lovely. Beautiful collage. ❤ love the gold

Very different and very good Jenny. Really like the simplified drawing of the young lady - to me this collage has a Victorian / Edwardian " look".

Absolutely brilliant and so beautifully done, it’s stunning , yes I like it Jenny .I agree with Fiona should be called Jenny Wren .

So beautiful

It’s a lovely design Jenny, really top work!

A real eye-catcher, Jenny. Beautiful composition, love it!

Thank you so much for all the very kind comments - and to Fiona and Paul for the title suggestion - I’ve used Jenny Wren for a number of other paintings already, but you’re right, it does suit this one well. I enjoyed doing this - there’s something very satisfying about creating a collage and working it out as you go along.

Clever, this is a lovely collage

Beautiful, skilful work with a great deal of charm Jenny.

Thank you, Heather and Carole, comments appreciated!

I have never really tried collage but this is a delight Jenny.

Thanks, Frank! It’s useful for giving a new lease of life to paintings which maybe don’t work too well on their own. You can block out with white gesso and repaint any areas you don’t want to include. It’s quite fun to do and adds another level of interest.

Thanks for the response Jenny. Must give it a try sometime but I have several things on the go at the moment and really must try and complete at least one of them!

Fabulous collage Jenny love it.

Thanks, Carole! (I always like the gold in your work - I’ve had gold leaf, gold ink and gold paint sitting in a drawer for ages and have finally found a use for at least some of it!)

Thank you, Maureen!

Thanks very much, Anjana! (Was delighted to have had this selected for Patchings this year.)

A collaged compilation of two earlier paintings, with a few bits added. (The colours are a bit duller here than on my original photo.)

Jenny Harris

I paint mainly in watercolour, often including other media such as pen and ink, pastel or collage. My main interest is in colour and design and most of my work is quite stylised and often illustrative. I enjoy experimenting with acrylic inks, particularly using cling film to create texture, and…
