Artist Statement for Marie Prescott Jenkins
|
|
|
A native of Idaho, M. Prescott Jenkins is listed in Marquis (founded in 1899) Who's Who In America and Who's Who of American Women. Jenkins has been very active in promotion of the arts, both performing and visual, in communities, schools, and church for many years, as well as teaching classes and workshops, two of which will be available in St. George, Utah and San Carlos, Mexico in 2002.
She developed a love of the outdoors early in life finding great excitement in color and dynamic lighting. Jenkins prefers painting outdoors and is a plein aire artist who enjoys the direct and vital experience of assessing the scene as it is subjected to personal
interpretation. "Striving for excellence is never-ending," says Jenkins. Use of color harmony, along with a charming style, are two strong aspects of her work and strike a lasting chord. Collectors comment that they never tire of viewing her paintings, as enough is left to pique the imagination.
Her training includes USU, Snow College, numerous workshops including impressionism and Russian classicism, where skills and techniques have been enhanced and refined. Her paintings have been included in private, corporate, municipal, ecumenical collections in the US, Europe, Asia. They have been included in traveling shows and in galleries in Idaho, Utah and Wyoming.
