Jenny Mynett

Background
Born in Cheshire, I had a varied career but always with a creative edge. I trained as a teacher and worked in the theatre and television for many years followed by training and educational management.

Artist's Statement
My return to Wales in 2003 offered an increased opportunity to pursue my various creative interests and love of the natural worlds. I had always enjoyed discovering different media such as pottery, sculpture, textile work, silver smithing, silk and water colour painting etc. Etching had been a special love discovered over 30 years ago. A chance idle moment on the computer in 2006 had me ‘googling’ etching classes and holidays and I discovered a couple of places including a workshop in Tavistock and a course in Italy focusing on woodcut and relief printing and etchings. A week in Devon followed by 2 weeks in the beautiful Piedmont district of Italy trying various techniques re-inspired me and eventually led me to discover the Swansea Print Workshop and the Aberystwyth Printmakers. My work has a natural feel frequently focusing on landscapes, sea-scapes and flowers as I try to capture and portray an essence. I am also exploring the ancient technique of mezzo tint which produces a rich velvety black and a textured feel.
