Jen is an award winning architectural designer and visual artist based in Santa Fe.

After 35 years in the Design-Build industry, she works full-time as a visual artist. She is inspired by nature, abandoned industry, liminal spaces, & abstract imagery.

Mediums include: oil, acrylic & watercolor painting; intaglio, photopolymer & monotype printmaking; mixed media; and fine art photography.

Inspiration is found each day working in her Sangre de Cristo mountain studio with sweeping views of northern New Mexico. Jen lives with her life-partner and two

wild and woolly rescue dogs.
