It\u2019s the best of both worlds, really.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Jenny graduated from school in 1987, she studied a Bachelor of Visual Arts at the Canberra Institute of the Arts.<\/p>\n<p>In 1992, she was accepted into a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Fine Art at the La Trobe University College of Northern Victoria.<\/p>\n<p>While it was part of the curriculum to experiment with a range of versatile mediums, Jenny said she found herself gravitating towards the very tool she\u2019s spent her lifetime finessing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe tried everything; acrylics, oils, but I always seemed to come back to pen, ink and watercolour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know whether it\u2019s just something I\u2019m comfortable with. I\u2019ve branched off every now and then and done things that are full of colour, but I always end up bringing back that intricate detail into them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven if I try to do a really free watercolour painting, I always bring in detail. It\u2019s always been my choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The award-winning artist said using a 0.0mm black fineliner allowed her to incorporate streams of wispy lines in each of her artworks, most of which prompt the viewer to enter a maze of curiosity.<br \/>\n\u201cEvery single piece of my work tells a story,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has always been based around paper. I\u2019ve done quite a few book sculptures and they\u2019ve always been very detailed, very intricate pieces of work that always tell a story, where people have to look more closely to see the work that they haven\u2019t really seen before.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s always hidden things that I put in.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38434\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38434\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-38434\" src=\"https:\/\/timesnewsgroup.com.au\/surfcoasttimes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/05\/laidlaw-2-719x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"570\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38434\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jenny&#8217;s alphabet series is one of her favourite projects.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Jenny said her two biggest inspirations in the art world were Maurits Cornelis Escher and Leon Pericles, but Pericles\u2019 use of \u201cfound objects\u201d encouraged her to consider how this could take shape in her style.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith Escher, it\u2019s the play on the mind, but Leon\u2019s whimsical style influenced me to start beachcombing down here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of my earlier work back 10 years ago plus was inspired by a lot of Surf Coast areas like Pt Addis, Southside (Beach), the Ironbark Basin, but now I\u2019m using my imagination more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery now and then I\u2019ll pop in things that are relevant to my past; I\u2019ll put in high country cattlemen huts because of my strong tie to Mount Beauty, and that\u2019s my personal input into my artworks. A lot of people look at it and think \u2018Why has she put that in there?\u2019 but that\u2019s why I do art \u2013 it\u2019s for me as well as for the viewer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jenny has won the People\u2019s Choice Award in the Mission to Seafarers Victoria\u2019s (MtSV) annual ANL Maritime Art Prize three times, with the most recent having been presented last year.<\/p>\n<p>She has also had her work showcased across various exhibitions across the wider region, including Eagles Nest Fine Art Gallery, Tigerfish Art Gallery, Epworth Geelong\u2019s public art gallery and Metropolis Gallery where her work was displayed in a shared exhibition with her father.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s also completed a series of murals for the City of Greater Geelong as part of its Christmas in Geelong initiative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also do quite a few commissions for people but I\u2019m quite selective who I do them for. I don\u2019t want to be restricted to somebody else\u2019s expectations,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m also really lucky in that I can do an original piece of artwork and it can be produced as a limited edition print, I can then get onto a greeting card, I can also sell it as jigsaw puzzles, which have gone gangbusters the past couple of months, and then bookmarks, and a calendar. So one piece of artwork can keep on selling for years and years.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38474\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38474\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-38474\" src=\"https:\/\/timesnewsgroup.com.au\/surfcoasttimes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/05\/Not-all-those-who-wounder-are-lost-814x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"503\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38474\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Not all those who wander are lost&#8221; by Jenny Laidlaw.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Jenny said her fascination with lighthouses was yet another enduring inspiration for her artworks but confessed it was almost impossible to explain where her ideas come from.<\/p>\n<p>She said sometimes the epiphanies creep in as late as 2am, forcing her to spring out of bed and into her home studio before the stroke of genius checks out for the evening.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love the fact that most lighthouses are set in remote, isolated areas, and that\u2019s what I love, the remoteness, the isolation, which is why I love the mountains as well, so I think that\u2019s where that\u2019s coming from. It\u2019s nearly like a sub conscious-y type thing, I think.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI find it hard to verbalise and articulate where everything comes from for my work, I just let my imagination go.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRather than using words, I\u2019m using a pen and paintbrush.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of her most recent artworks \u2013 which is titled \u201cIsolated and Separate, Yet Together and United\u201d \u2013 was inspired by the coronavirus pandemic and features toilet paper rolls, hand sanitiser, face masks and teddy bears.<\/p>\n<p>In her artist statement, Jenny explained the artwork was a visual representation of the world we\u2019re living in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven though we are all isolated in our homes, we are still together and united in our fight to beat this virus,\u201d it read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe can still connect with one another during these frightening and challenging times, through a wave and a smile from a window.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Jenny Laidlaw, head to <a href=\"http:\/\/jennylaidlaw.com.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">jennylaidlaw.com.au<\/a> or follow <strong>@jennylaidlawartist<\/strong> on Instagram.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forging a successful career in art was arguably a birthright for Jan Juc\u2019s Jenny Laidlaw.
