Catherine Jenna Hendry (CJ Hendry) (born 1988) is a contemporary Australian artist know for hyper-realistic, large-scale renderings of luxury objects using a self-developed scribbling technique.

Biography

Hendry was born in South Africa raised in Brisbane, Australia.[1] She attended the University of Queensland in Australia where she studied architecture and finance before dropping out to pursue an art career in 2013.[2][3] Hendry lived and practiced in Brisbane before moving to New York in 2015.[3] She is represented by digital art collective The Cool Hunter.[4]

Career

Hendry's practice started as a hobby. She has no formal art training and considers herself "not very creative."[5] Her works are primarily hyper-realistic, large scale ink drawings of luxury objects that sometimes take 200 hours to complete.[6] Working with ink on paper her pieces are achieved through layers of what she refers to as scribbles.[5][2][7] She uses photographs with edited saturated lighting, a ruler and a pen as a guide for their placement. [8] Hendry credits her fame to social media attributing her first sale in 2014, a depiction of RM Williams boots that sold for $10,000, to Instagram.[5]

In 2016 she expanded her practice with the launch of a collaboration with fashion house Christian Louboutin.[9][10] The resulting exhibition, held in the Anita Chan Lia-ling Gallery at the Fringe Club in Hong Kong as part of the 2017 Art Basel, marked Hendry's first time working with colour and wax pencil.[11] The difference, the artist explains, is that ‘color is very difficult, because you’ve got to use multiple different colors to create one.’[12]
