| 关于此艺术家 |
Jennifer has an early artistic background in ink and oil painting and now paints exclusively with pastel; she finds the vibrancy and vitality of the pastel medium lends itself particularly well to her rendering of light and color in both her land and seascapes.
Jennifer's love of the natural beauty of the countryside and the tranquility of the sea is clearly reflected in her works. Jennifer's heart is in contemporary style pastel landscape and seascape painting. Much of her inspiration is drawn from her extensive travels across Europe, the United States, the Caribbean and the Far East.
Jennifer has a client base both in the USA and Europe, comprising both private and commercial collectors.
Jennifer is a Juried Associate Member of the Pastel Society of America and a member of the South West Florida Pastel Society and has been published in The Pastel Journal, American Artist Magazine, The Artist’s Magazine and also published online at practicalpainting.com.
Jennifer's work is frequently shown at national juried exhibitions across the United States and in addition is exhibited at many of the annual art shows throughout New England and Florida. Her work can also be seen at galleries in Naples, FL, Concord, NH, and Acton, MA and by appointment at her studio in Sarasota, Florida. |
