"Pottery and Painting" Oil on Board. 2010

My experiments with clay last year and early this year have influenced the way that I approach painting.  Throwing pots on the wheel, creating handbuilt vessels and sculptures; these activities have fed into my work with paint.

"Not An Apocalyptic Landscape" 2010.  Oil on Board.

"Sail Cloth"  Jenny Meehan 2010  Acrylic, Pigment, PVA

"Waiting for Paint to Dry"  Jenny Meehan 2010  Acrylic on Card.

"Birth Of Venus"   Jenny Meehan 2010  Oil on Canvas

"Casein Painting" 2010   I like using casein paint. It is something I hope to develop more in the future.  This is my first attempt.  Casein paint is thick, just like slip, but it's also very sticky.  Casein ruins your brushes very quickly! I've got a great book by "Henry Gasser" written in the 1950's which has all the technical information I need.  

"Branch" 2010
