About the Art
What the artist saysThis work, from my Wave Series, combines playful strokes, colors and textures to evoke happiness. I hope it reminds you that life doesn't have to always be so serious.
Why we like itJennifer’s layers are incredibly versatile: they work together to hide pigment in their nooks and crannies even on her oversized canvases.
Where we hang itThis canvas packs a punch: hang it front and center for maximum effect.
About the Artist
Jen Sanders
Saint Louis native and self-taught artist Jen Sanders has been exploring her creativity in painting for several years. By day, she works in the field of design as a User Experience designer and although she flexes her creative muscles in her day job, software design can be bound by the limitations of the company stakeholders and the users. For this reason, Jen is drawn to the limitless creativity of abstract expressionism. She considers herself a “maker”, specifically drawn to painting. Her evolution into abstract art allows her to gain new experiences and explore her creativity - approaching every blank canvas with optimism and excitement. The range of her talent and willingness to try new things is continuously evolving and expanding up in every new painting.““Winging it” is what leads me to finish a painting - a splatter of some hope, faith and a whole lot of faking it.”
