Acrylic Painting I love painting with acrylic because it's fast and fun. I love texture so there's plenty of it when I paint. Acrylic offers bright, non fading colors and lots of detail.
Oil Painting I'm classically trained in oil paints. I've used oils more than any other medium I've tried. I've always felt the most comfortable with oils. Rich colors and creamy textures it's a wonderful medium to use. Capturing the beauty of the landscapes of Park City goes hand in hand with oils!
This bees wax based paint is a versatile and dimensional medium. I have embedded a variety of materials into the wax including: coins, leaves, paper, metal, beads, wire, paper and fiber These paintings are highly textured and full of fun detail. Oh, and no, I know what you are thinking. The beeswax painting will not melt off your wall! LOL! Encaustic paint has been around since ancient Egypt times. Encaustic paint is not just straight beeswax. It is a blend of beeswax and damar resin. (a crystalized tree sap) When the beeswax and the resin are infused together it changes the properties of the wax. It makes the wax much more durable and have a new melting temperature of over 200 degrees F. So if your house is over 200 degrees F, call the fire department! HAH!
About the artist - Jenny Terry I've been painting and drawing ever since I was a little girl. I remember when mom enrolled me into an oil painting class when I was in 1st grade. I never stopped. I graduated from Art center college of design in Pasadena with a Bachelor of Arts degree in illustration with honors in 1989. I still enjoy creating art every day of my life. I love being versatile. I love and work with all types of mediums. When I'm not painting I volunteer my time teaching art to elementary or substitute teach for middle, junior high and high school kids. Children have a natural love for art like no other and it's a joy to teach to them. Original art, prints and cards are available for sale.
