Painted Models by Grace Tam In my usual news feeds about nude art I came across these two articles. or rather this article and a rather negative response to it. Rather than do my usual discussions and debates on the matters at hand I would like to turn them over to you, who do you…
Shadow 10×8 Oils on Linen by Jennie Rosenbaum Yet again I have been swamped in the preparations for submissions, writing essays, trying to find inspiration and all the usual day to day activities of an artist. I also had the good luck to fall recently so I have been undergoing a lot of recovery and…
Consternation – 12 x 12 Oils on Canvas by Jennie Rosenbaum my apologies once again everyone, I’ve been coordinating my first international show and it’s been a series of headaches to say the least. most people would use this sort of thing as fuel to write about in their blog, but for some reason every…
I have updated my prices online and have made changes to my blog artwork page to match. don’t you love it when you have an efficient day? my old pay per click advertising program has dumped me for not earning enough. I was earning small amounts here and there, enough to pay for my blog…
languish by Jennie Rosenbaum As many of you know our house has been sold by our landlords and we have to move very soon, which means we are house hunting all through christmas.

I’ve been meaning to update you all on the new paintings I’ve been doing, the news from this show and other shows and all the little bits that go into making an exhibition work….
