Pic above is Jen in 2016 -living in California with her beloved Bella.
Jennifer is originally from New Orleans and currently resides in St. Petersburg, Florida where she enjoys swimming in the sea on a near by island called Fort Desoto. She got started in the realm of fine art in her mid 40’s although she had a history of creative entrepreneurship.
At 8, rather than a lemonade stand, Jennifer sold pizzas on her street corner that she made from scratch. Later it would be greeting cards as well as a mini musical she created in the 5th grade called "Corn Dogs". Jennifer started a modelling career at 12. In her 20’s Jennifer gravitated towards a career in dental lab art technologies where she worked with plaster designs and metal finishing. This work gave her an authentic practice for an artistic eye and craftmanship. Many years later Jennifer started teaching herself how to draw portraits and animals. During this period of time Jennifer and her dog Bella lived nomadically; She had limited resources so she bought childrens paint and other art supplies at local discount stores and in December of 2017 one of her paintings was displayed in a Guadalupe gallery show in Sante Fe, NM. To expand futher she enrolled in a mastery drawing and painting intensive that helped her blossom into deeper technical skills.
Jennifers passion is to create art that instills a sense of unity, awakening and transformation through channeled paintings of portals. She creates art for energy work purposes to reach the subconscious for healing trauma. Her work offers an introspective visual experience, often using nonobjective abstracts.
In Jennifer’s artistic process she often uses mixed media ; inks, acrylic, artist crayon, collage and oil paint as well as oil paintings without other mediums.
Some of Jennifers favorite artist influencers are Hilma Af Clint, Joan Mitchell, and Pablo Picasso.
