Tenyka Jay
Artist’s Statement
Tenyka’s work is heavily centred around nostalgia. Predominantly working with oil paint, Tenyka likes to set up and photograph her own still-life compositions. Tenyka’s work leans towards realism and hyper-realism however she does also enjoy working more loosely en plein air.
