Let customers speak for us
from 1 reviewsJen is a self-taught Canadian artist focusing on hyperrealism.
Never having taken an art class, all of her knowledge comes from watching & studying YouTube videos and researching the internet. While only starting to dabble in art from the end of 2020, Jen's passion has been a ferocious calling geared towards animal realism right from the start.
Having worked in Animal Health Care & Rehabilitation for 15yrs, Jen's love of animals and nature far surpasses a mere fondness, it is more of a kinship with these creatures and the great outdoors.
Even as a child, Jen felt closer to animals than she did most people. Her natural bond with animals is seen and felt in her works. She seems to somehow capture their essence, what THEY are feeling at the time their photograph is taken.
Time and again, people comment on the animals Jen paints & draws... "They seem so real, it is as if they are about to jump right out of picture!"
This is because of the countless weeks, sometimes months, Jen can spend on a painting. She studies every square inch of a photograph over and over, ensuring nothing is missed, every shadow and highlight, tint & hue is captured perfectly to convey the reality of every beautiful subject she works on.
Having just left her career in construction in 2024 to pursue art full time, it is Jen's mission to create art that not only catches your eye, but speaks to your soul
Coming from a humble background, Jen left home as a young teenager. Putting herself through high school, college, working for many years for non-profits in animal care and even switching careers later in life into Oil & Gas construction.
She started at the bottom knowing nothing and teaching herself with each job and studying nights after work until she could challenge exams to become a Weld Inspector.
Jen knows the trials and turmoil of striving for more, of doing what it takes, and more, to succeed.
Because of this, Jen is offering something very different to any potential customers who would like either their beloved pet or their favorite wild animal painted just for them who maybe can't afford a giant sized commissioned painting...
Because she photographs, edits & prints all her own works, Jen is offering the same with her commissions.
You may choose to purchase a smaller version of your favorite animal, pet, landmark or fantasy image to be painted and have a much larger sized print on canvas or giclee fine print, for a fraction of what it would cost to have it painted in that size!
Simply reach out to Jen for more info.
With Jen's background as a Quality Control Inspector and her keen attention to detail, you can rest assured that only the best will do. Nothing is rushed, each painting takes as long as it takes to complete as each piece is different and comes to life in its own way.
If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to reach out to Jen anytime.
