Jenny was born into a creative family. Her formidable years were spent surrounded by art in all its forms. Her family is comprised of performing, visual artists, singers, and musicians.
She was raised in Southern California. Her raw talents were apparent early on to her late Father who was an accomplished and disciplined Artist of many mediums. Her teachers often spoke of the extra details she would incorporate into her art assignments in Elementary School.
Her studies include Figurative Drawing, Interior design, fashion Illustration, and watercolor painting. Jenny is self-taught in oil painting, her favorite medium. She enjoys working in 3 mediums, oil on canvas, charcoal portraits, and watercolor.
After 12 years without creating art, Jenny’s budding artist Niece, unwittingly nudged her back into painting with requests for lessons.
Her Husband, family, and friend’s love and support is the driving force behind her creativity. What inspires her beyond all is the human capacity for love, strength, and endurance.
Jenny dedicates The Soul of The Desert series to her Niece, Bridgette. “Thank you for reigniting Papa’s Legacy of art, and teaching me about true bravery. Gigi loves you and Evan, endlessly.”
