ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Painted in vivid red, blue and gold, this painting is a diptych, done on two panels. The images span both and they can be hung adjacent or with space between. The edges are painted a neutral gray and it is wired for hanging. This piece was created during my years of pregnancy and childbirth. I completed this while trying to get pregnant with our second child and having a miscarriage. This was my way of sorting through the emotions and pain at the time. I was playing with collaging eggshells in a trial piece which I then implemented into this work (only the 2nd mixed media piece I've done in oils as a professional artist). They are both structural and metaphorical. My mom had loaned me her egg cooker to use as subject matter, and at the same time I had started saving eggshells that I thought I may incorporate into works.

Jennie Traill Schaeffer is a teaching artist, who recently relocated her home studio to Durham, NC, via West Orange, NJ, from her birthplace of Easton, PA. Rooted in subject matter that venerates objects and places, her works asks the viewer to stay a bit longer, look deeper and to slow down. She is informed by a developing meditative practice and exploration of her surrounding environments. While much of her work is non-figurative, her work strives to embody figurative energy, vibrant colors and the use of paint as the vehicle of expression, with linear drawn elements.
