Roy Jenuine, Camping with Dogs Near a Blue Sky, 2010
Roy Jenuine is a mixed media artist hailing from the north coastal beach community of Leucadia, Calif. He has spent his life’s work blending wood, photography and found materials to create artful masterpieces spanning functional furniture, to mixed media assemblage. Jenuine’s work explores materials, finishes, and craftsmanship, as well as observations about his surroundings. He finds humor in the everyday, captures nostalgia, pushes the boundaries of function and form. He aligns himself with folk art and architecture, addressing both complex modernist aesthetics and found elements from the salvage yard. Drawing from his childhood in Los Angeles, early 1970s residency at the radical architectural project Arcosanti, and formal training at San Diego State University, Jenuine has developed a distinctive visual vocabulary that is rigorous, fun, meditative and truly original.
