Hi, I'm Jennifer!
I am a Canadian born artist, currently based in Portland Oregon. I specialize in the equine form.
I am often asked, ‘why horses?’ My answer is simple, the equine form never cease to excite me. They present an endless source of inspiration through their expression, colour, movement, gestures and conformation. I work representationally as well as abstractly. These two genres compliment my personality as I work in constant evolution and experimentation in a variety of media and materials.
A Moment in Life from the Field
Every horse depicted in my painting portfolio comes from a moment in life from the field. These field experiences create a deeply personal connection between myself, my subject matter and my artwork. I know the work is complete when the story that I have woven with paint conjures the visceral memory of each horse.
Beyond the Field
My figurative abstract work challenges me to push the subject matter beyond realism. This work satisfies the designer in me through solving composition elements and exploring colour. Working abstractly and learning from abstract mentors has pushed my representational work to greater levels. I love to be able to work in both genres.
