Jenny Aitken

Jenny Aitken artist works available for sale with Wychwood Art. Jenny Aitken the artist comments "I live in Derbyshire, on the edge of the Peak District, and my studio looks North West towards the peaks. However my roots are in Alderney, in the Channel Islands, and the sea is in my blood. My love of the coast is strongly reflected in my work. I want to tell a story with a painting, and achieve a full sense of a place. Each piece is born from strong visual and emotional memories, where my associated thoughts are as integral to the painting’s creation as the shapes, colours and light. A finished piece, for me, has to be felt as well as seen. I want movement, light and texture. That is what inspires me in a painting: the portrayal of the experience of a place. I work in oils, and acrylics, both in the studio and direct from the landscape."
