Artists Statement--Please feel free to comment, disagree or agree!

Words say little and expressions can tell tall tales, but somewhere beneath all the array of convincing smiles and wide eyed surprise is a moment of absolute true expression. The most powerful thing I can do as an artist is to motivate a sense of wonder from the viewer. When someone looks at a painting and questions what they aren't seeing, "What is she looking at?" or they tell me their perception of what is taking place, I know the painting is successful. I love to take someone out of reality for a moment, and have them visit another space and time. Often, I start with a "mood" or feeling in mind, but the painting becomes it's own entity, and forms the personality it chooses. Then someone else senses or sees something I never did. This is what I enjoy most. Art should touch you personally, and not have to be explained. People should like art because of how it makes them feel, not because someone else said it's worthy.

How does she do it?
Jenny Gini has a unique perspective of looking at the world - truly, an artist's gift. One looks at her work, looks away and returns - there's something else there one didn't see before! Amazing! Her art moves me and makes me want to look again to see what I might have missed before. She is always seeking what cannot be easily sought. I don't know how she does it!


My Birthday Gift.
Let me say I was so thrilled and stunned when I opened my gift from your mother, Liz. What a wonderful gift. Of all your paintings, this was the one I loved most. I will cherish it till I die. To have this painting in my home honours my home. Thank you for being so talented.

Creative art
I was seaching on the acrylic WC site and saw your web site listed. Your art work is exciting and the way you use the colors in quite creative. I really like the figure forms in the rocks with a strong sky overhead. My daughter Rebecca hand painted jeans and had an exclusive store on the strip that was interested in her work. She past away last June 24 at the age of 34. She died of complications from Lyme's disease. Her art will live on. Most of the jeans she painted were given to people who helped her. We do have some excellent pictures of them that was done professionally. I am Night Dancer on WC and am getting into watercolors and want to paint a pair of jeans too, even though I might be a bit old wearing them, but who cares. Good luck in your art career. A fellow art lover, Lloyd
