Jeannine Cook, 20th Century American artist, silverpoint entitled "Windmill Hill," circa 2000. Depicts landscape with windmill after "The Black Prince." Signed lower left. Housed in silver tone frame, glazed and matted. Cook's interest in the unique silverpoint art technique began as a child in East Africa as she watched her grandfather develop black and white prints in a darkroom. "Their monochromatic beauty ultimately contributed, I now realize, to my fascination with the drawing medium of silverpoint," she explained. "Its intensity of execution allows me to concentrate on the familiar. I reaffirm connections with my sense of place, with rhythms of tides and seasons, with light moving, changing, transforming everything. For me, silverpoint is a subtle, quiet medium that provides a counterpoint to today's high voltage world." Cook resides in Townsend, Georgia. This piece measures 9" height, 12 inches width sight; 18 inches height, 21 inches width framed. 9" H x 12" W
