Jenny Saville workshop


Jenny Saville workshop, originally uploaded by jasonshogreen.

Over the past two days I had the good fortune to partake in a painting workshop with Jenny Saville. I'll write more later and share some photos, but quickly, she's a remarkable, kind, generous woman and it was a transformative couple of days (I think). She's everything you'd hope one of your favorite artists would be.
Also, she is surprisingly short.

  4. I'll share some details when I get some free time over the Thxgiving break.

    Emma - thank you that's very sweet. I'll try to get to updating more, but when I'm actually being productive I always forget (on top of papers, etc, ugh). I'll be updating the website at some point over the christmas break. thanks for your greed.
