Painting of Jeannine
by George William Clark

Jeannine Jourdan

Jeannine Jourdan offers oil paintings in portraiture, still life and landscapes. Having studied and worked with teachers in modern traditions in California she then deepened her work at the Charles Cecil Studios in Florence. While there she fell in love with and now works exclusively in the atelier tradition of working from life.

Lineage

The following is a list of those I consider to be my teachers still. Mixing my own paints where possible, stretching canvas onto cradles and mixing my own medium all contribute to my experience of connecting with this lineage. Visiting their work at every opportunity is also an important way I work to continue learning from them.
