About the Item

Penny Whent (American, born 1949) "Along Asilomar" 2024 Acrylic Paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars The artist signed the back of the painting. Framed: 19" x 23" x 1" "Along Asilomar" captures the quiet poetry of California’s coastline, where lavender and pink wildflowers drift across the dunes toward a calm blue horizon. Penny Whent’s layered brushwork creates a sense of both softness and texture, the blossoms appearing to tremble in the sea breeze while the sandy paths wind gently toward the water. The sky holds a pale clarity that deepens the sense of distance, and the overall composition invites the eye to wander slowly through the scene. It is a painting that feels both fresh and timeless, offering a view that could belong to any golden afternoon along the Pacific. About the Artist: Penny’s artistic journey began in childhood, influenced by her architect‑photographer father in Pacific Grove. Penny is largely self-taught, having explored block printing, watercolor, photography, and drawing before embracing painting. Her art, once a part‑time practice during her years as a paralegal, now flourishes full‑time in her Monterey home studio. Penny translates the landscapes of the Monterey Peninsula, Lake Tahoe, and the Sierra Nevada foothills into post and abstract impressionist canvases that glow with emotive color and expressive still lifes. Her work has been featured in numerous galleries throughout the Monterey Bay area, including Carmel, Pacific Grove, and Big Sur.
