Eunice Pinney
American Folk Artist, 1770-1849
She was a self-taught artist who, from about 1809 to 1826, devoted part of her time to producing a wide range of subjects in watercolour: landscape, genre, historical, biblical, allegorical and literary. Her distinctive style is solid and robust, with a strong sense of contrast and design. Problems in creating realistic form are apparent: faces are largely expressionless, and figures are stocky and two-dimensional. However, these difficulties are compensated for by fresh vigorous colour, bold pattern, artful composition and varied subject-matter. Pinney displayed the primitive artist's tendency to borrow and model from the best sources at hand: The Cotter's Saturday Night Related Paintings of Eunice Pinney :. | Unknow work 88 | Antigone Aoqiao Si and Tony Stratford | Part of a diptych with the portrait of his son, Johann Friedrich the Magnanimous | Young Woman in a Striped Blouse (mk39) | Wheat Fields with Reaper at Sunrise (nn04) | Related Artists: leon bellyFrench Academic Painter, 1827-1877 Leon-Matthieu Cochereau1793-1817
