Jenn started her art career drawing for the Animation industry for many years, and has since then, become a prolific painter, illustrator, street artist and now an international muralist. Her work is figurative, often showcasing mischievous quasi-human beings living in colourful and textural worlds, usually adorned with fauna and flora.
All those years drawing cartoons have really influenced her style and how she builds her characters. Mixed with a curiosity for the macabre, it is the perfect combination of sweet and strange.
Being an odd imaginative child, it makes sense that Jenn creates worlds ruled by witches and goddesses, where she and her imaginary friends can get lost in.
Often using mixed materials in her backgrounds, such as spray paint, stencils, splatters and ripped paper, there is a slight juxtaposition between the chaos of the background and the calmness of the character living there.
Jenn’s art has been making appearances in the street art scene and as of a few years ago, has been getting more into mural painting. She has painted murals for downtown Vancouver, New York City and has just returned from a month long mural residency in Sicily with the collective 13 Feet Off The Ground. Jenn is excited about sharing her art in this way in public and private spaces all around the globe; whisking people away to other worlds; inspiring viewers and adding more colour to their everyday lives.
Currently living/working in Mount Pleasant, Vancouver, Jenn continues to chase magic beings and is living life to the fullest.
