Do It Anyway by Jenny Singleton


  • Touchstone Gallery 901 New York Avenue NW Washington D.C 20001 United States (map)

Do it Anyway is the first solo exhibition by painter Jenny Singleton at Touchstone Gallery. Comprised of abstract paintings reflecting her personal vocabulary of calligraphic line and unorthodox color choices, her style shows the influence of a lifelong love of historic and contemporary Mideastern and Islamic art and calligraphy.

Although her work is abstract, Singleton sometimes uses it to address environmental and societal issues important to her. Explanatory text is included next to several pieces to help viewers decode her intent and meaning.

The show’s title derives from Singleton’s customary self-admonishment, when facing challenges artistic or otherwise, to look past fear and self-doubt and “do it anyway.”
