Supported by her family in her pursuit to study art and become a professional artist. She is a mother. Her 2 children influence her creativity. ( Hudson, The Daily Telegraph) She is working now in Oxford and in London during a time when female artists are more lcommon, allowed to attend school and are lexhibited world wide. Although they still have ito struggle in a male dominated art world. Exhibitions at galleries are still a prominent way for artists to gain notoriety but the Internet and global communication is a gaining influence. According to my observations, figurative art and realism has had a resurgence in the art world over the past 10 years. Her themes and subjects are often formed ifrom a critical observation of average people, leven women in shopping malls, patients being prepped for liposuction, and even her childhood piano teacher. ("Jenny Saville |...”) Influenced by: Lucian Freud and Peter Paul Rubens ("Jenny Saville | ...”) The Art World Works challenge viewers. Figurative painting and realism has been out of vogue in the art world with a few exceptions in Photo Realism and artists like Gerhard Richter and Chuck Close. However it has been making more of an appearance in the art galleries of NYC and in art magazines more and more since the early 2000s. They have seen her work develop...

The space is very shallow and the background in flat with only a monochrome frame depicting the space as if it were a picture frame with the figures emerging from the frame. Active-gestural lines that mimic the energy of the mother holding the children. The lines show outlines of various Positions of the children and overlap the figures and disappear beneath them as well destroying the traditional figure ground relationship. The expression on the mother and the older child are the two points of emphasis since they are rendered more that the rest of the figures. This adds to the connection between the figures. The emphasis on the older child is also made more apparent by the hand of the mother framing his face. The scale of the figures are z representational and seem realistic given the relationship ‘Shape & Form- The fully to one another. painted figures give a sense of three ~ a ~~~ 4 dimensionality however || The composition is central with the mother being fairly there are areas that are _|| symmetrical.

"| like the dirty side of things" Jenny Saville The mood is chaotic, raw, primal emotion, maternal without over glorifying the role of the mother or the child. She paints fleshy figures that fill her canvases. Works are not simply figurative but can be described as “post painterly" in merging abstract and figurative with clumps and drips which form blemishes rather than decoration. Her children are an important part of her new series. (Hudson, The Daily Telegraph) Saville had a friend photograph her as she gave birth. It was painted in England after she art gave birth with her first child and was also pregnant/and gave birth to her second, ("Jenny Saville - Gagosian Gallery.") Physicality of motherhood and children. By focusing on details such as the navels and her own pregnant belly she creates links to her children as another generation. She is fascinated by the aesthetic and formal possibilities of painting the “materiality of the human body."("Jenny Saville - Gagosian Gallery.") You can sense the mass in her paintings. The first time | saw her work at the Gaogosian Gallery in New York City, | was absorbed by their scale, tactile quality of soft flesh tones juxtaposed by almost violent brushwork. She creates sensual work as in “The Mothers” with a tactile impression. Her work is monumental in scale with makes the view feel small in comparison. “Subjects are imbued with a sculptural yet elusive dimensionality that verges on the abstract”. ("Jenny Saville - Gagosian Gallery.") In this work, the intertwined bodies are merging and fighting to be set free. They are lost into one another. The role of mother and child(ren) become one while they fight to separate. It is as if to watch birth and motherhood condensed into a moment. “Bodies fascinate me. | find having the framework of a body essential.

Her works share particular | | formal qualities. They are half-length compositions, like The Caress. They are set with little background detail. They are in closed off spaces and a fixed mood. Space is closed off and depth is only alluded to by the angle of the chair and the corner of the wall that seems awkwardly highlighted behind the mother’s head. The figure ground relationship is shallow. Soft complementary colors. The soft yellow tints of the skin are balanced by the pink/purple of what appears to be the skirt of the mother. Soft pinks and purples are also prevalent in the fingers and toes of the figures. The green of the bodice of the dress complements the deep siena tones of the hair. There is an undertone of a soft purple and muted green in the background Lines of the chair direct the viewer's eye in to the frame along with the mother’s arms. The focal point is the youngest child’s face famed by the sister and mother. Unblended brushstrokes articulate the green dress alluding of a rich fabric with a possible sheen There is an un organized pattern on the mother's skirt and small dot like patterns on the bodice. | The Caress - Oil on 834 em x 69.4 em 1902 ‘Smithsonian American ‘Art Museum A cee The dark eyes are all aligned creating a pattern of pyouaical dots across the upper part of the composition this com itio also creates movement.
