Jenny Riddle

Background:
Jenny Riddle's commitment to painting is driven by the land and sea that surrounds her on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula.

Drawing on the values ascribed to Nature as described the by the great Romantic landscape artists of the 19th century, Jenny Riddle maintains that there’s a deep, emotional element connecting Man with Nature, and remembering to connect with it is sometimes forgotten.
She says that "Being witness to such ethereal beauty is what inspires me to paint".
