Pinney was one of few female artists active during the colonial and early American period that is still recognized today. She is also known as Eunice Griswold Pinney and Eunice Griswold Holcombe Pinney. While little is known about her life and artistic training, it is almost certain that Pinney was a self taught artist, and probably created the bulk of her oeuvre while in her thirties. She raised five children, was twice married and was a very active figure in her community of Windsor, Connecticut.
It has been said by some art historians that Pinney’s watercolor style and techniques were far more aggressive than that of her female contemporary artists of the time. Perhaps this is why her work is better known today than that of other female artists of her time. Still wondering about a 19th century folk art watercolor painting hanging in your home?
