Collection: Jenny Holland

Er iddi gael ei geni yn Llundain ac yn ddiweddarach yn byw yng Nghilgwri, mae Jenny bellach wedi byw yng Ngogledd Cymru ers blynyddoedd, yn paentio ac arddangos. Ar ôl ennill lefel ‘A’ mewn celf treuliodd beth amser yng Ngholeg Celf Ealing, ond mae wedi hunanddysgu i raddau helaeth.

Ymhlith ei hoff leoliadau mae Penrhyn Llyn ac Ynys Môn, er ei bod hefyd yn teithio i'r Alban, Cernyw, Ardal y Llynnoedd ac arfordir gogledd Swydd Efrog pan gaiff y cyfle.

Mae Jenny yn cael ei denu at yr arfordir, ac mae hen harbyrau, hen ffermydd a chychod pysgota yn ysbrydoliaeth gyson iddi. Er bod ei stiwdio bellach yn Sir y Fflint mae'n hawdd cyrraedd y mynyddoedd a'r môr.

Bydd Jenny yn paentio gyda phasteli, beiro a dyfrlliw, ond olewau ac acrylig yw ei hoff gyfryngau ac wedi'u paentio i raddau helaeth ar gynfas gyda chyllell.

Although born in London and later living in Wirral, Jenny has now lived in North Wales for many years, painting, demonstrating and exhibiting. After gaining GCE ‘A’ level art, she spent some time at Ealing Art College, but is largely self taught.

Among her favourite locations are the Llyn Peninsula and Anglesey, although she also travels to Scotland, Cornwall, the Lake District and the north Yorkshire coast at every opportunity.

Jenny is drawn to the coastline, and old harbours, old farms and fishing boats are a constant inspiration to her. Although her studio is now in Flintshire it is easy access to the mountains and the sea.

Jenny will paint with pastels and pen and watercolour, but oils and acrylics are Jenny’s favorite mediums and largely painted on canvas with a knife.
