LLONA NEY JENSEN
ARTIST STATEMENT
From a young age, my passion for sketching began in the Midwest. Over the years I transformed a simple hobby into something much more profound. The act of drawing various subjects always intrigued me, as it presented a thrilling challenge to capture intricate details.
My life and work have been spent in the outdoors and my artwork reflects my experiences and love for the natural world. Art has been an integral part of my life as far back as I remember growing up in an artistic family. Outdoor recreation is another important aspect of my life, which has led to a lifetime of exploration, observations and appreciation of the natural world around us.
Although I have worked in a number of different mediums as an artist, I have been primarily working in pastels for the past 20 years. What I love about pastels is the sensitive and soft nature of the medium. Details are almost impossible to create, so impressions and moods are more appropriately expressed. I like my artwork to give a feel for the moment, rather than a photographic like representation.
My artwork includes scenes from all seasons. Images include scenes of landscapes, wildlife, waterscapes, and outdoor recreation. Framed giclees are available at Gallery 55. Unframed originals are available upon request online or through the gallery. Giclee prints of all sizes are also available on order either at the gallery or online.
