Black and White Aspen Birch Painting!

"Two Little Love Birds" was a commission for one of my favorite collectors in North Carolina. She debated whether to have me paint bluebirds or cardinals and in the end went with cardinals! Something so cool about the black, white and that pop of red! Always a good combo. ❤️

What's your favorite bird?

I can paint you any bird you like in my monochromatic series. Your choice! 🐤🐦🐧

New Aspen Commission Installed! 👀

Jen,

Here's a photo! I love how it seems like your looking up into the canopy when you stand beneath it.

It adds so much beauty, light, and color to the room -- we love it!!!

10 Week Art Show in Scottsdale!

A week ago, my space looked like this! Every artist is in charge of laying down floor, painting walls, hanging lights etc. It took a full week to get it all set up! 😅 This will be my studio for the next 10 weeks! The public is invited to come out daily from 10-6 to watch 100 artists create! It's truly one of a kind art show! ❤️ Come see me!

Check out the show's website for more info: www.celebrateart.com.

New Aspen Painting: “Touch of Crimson”

Aw! This made my day...❤️

"Hi Jen! I'm thrilled to say that I got my painting today. I hung it right away in my entryway. I love that I can see it while I'm cooking or in the kitchen with guests, I can see it in the mirror walking down the hall in the morning, and it's the first thing people will see when they walk in the door. Thank you so much!" —Janae

"Sweetheart Poppies" 22x27

 Closeup photo of the poppies. It's hard to capture just how thick the texture is! Lots of palette knife! My favorite tool. 😍

Big and Small—New and Available!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I'm excited to show you my latest creations fresh off the easel! 🎉🎉🎉 

==> https://available.jensart.com

So often, you'll go to my website and see that everything is SOLD! Well, I've been working on some paintings to show you first, before they get shipped off to galleries! 

Did you know that I haven't always been a landscape painter?

Yep! All the way through college, and a couple of years after, I painted only realistic portraits and figures in oils. I loved painting the human form. The thought of painting a landscape was super intimidating! 🙂

It definitely wasn't all about the crazy 3-D texture it is today!

Prices are going up tonight (Nov 1) at midnight, so now's your chance to collect your special piece!

XOXO,

Jen

College Days!

Dropped my eldest off at college! I'm going to miss my boy, but so excited he chose to go to my alma mater! I feel like I was just here taking art classes and trying to get people to sit for me so I could paint their portrait! I needed 100 portraits for one class by the end of the semester, so I was literally pulling people of the streets! So many memories! That tiny, white house was actually my very first art studio! It was a run down shed and with the help of some friends we put windows in and sheet rocked the walls. No plumbing or I probably would have just moved myself in instead of renting an apartment! Lol. 💕

In the Studio...

Progress...😅

Paintings in Progress

Back in the studio working on a couple of paintings at once! Similar color palettes so I thought it would be more time effective to paint them simultaneously. 🤪 #JensArt

Red Carpet in Red Lodge, MT

Tonight was a blast! Beartooth Gallery put on such a nice event. They invited their top collectors to a special red carpet VIP dinner. Snazzy! So fun meeting new collectors and reconnecting with others. 💃🏼 #JensArt

Three Amigas

Aren't they the cutest? I saw these three sitting on a bench in front of an outdoor market and I just couldn't resist snapping a pic. Photos like this make me miss painting people! What do you think? Would you want to see these Three Amigas in a painting? 💚💜💙 #JensArt

Clothesline Series!

I recently caught up with a collector who wants to commission one of my clothesline paintings! I haven't done that series in years! She remembers meeting me about 15 years ago at an outdoor show in San Francisco.

In her words...."I think the painting that I liked way back when had sheets, the image was breezy, sunny, and happy, with a blue sky and green grass, and the feeling imprinted on me was motion and vibrancy, and boundlessness."

She wrote down my name knowing that one day she would have a clothesline painting of her own! Fortunately, I'm in Mexico on a short family vacation, so I dropped the kids off at the beach and took a cab around the city of Zihuatanejo to find inspiration. I lucked out. Apparently, it was wash day! Here are a few of my favorites....

Splash of Color!

A collector from North Dakota just sent me these photos after she hung "Autumn's Promise" above the mantle. Love! 😍 All white with that pop of color is just perfect! Also love how she framed and displayed my cards! ❤️❤️❤️
