Jen Smith Art Exhibition
On display April 25 through May 25, 2019
Bones, wood, feathers, rocks, dead birds and skulls; tiny pine cones, ravens, wolves, and little eggs tucked neatly in a nest. These are just a few of the subjects that inspire the work of Jen Smith. She grew up and lived in the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming and Montana and draws inspiration from that heritage. Through the act of exploration, she responds to the natural world in its ever-evolving state via by the medium of charcoal, pastel pencil and watercolor. Her work, although naturalistic, is very modern and clean exhibiting as a specific celebration of that subject.
Jen received her BFA in Drawing and Painting from Montana State University in beautiful Bozeman, Montana. She enjoys her home art studio which has a stunning view of the Columbia River Gorge in the tiny town of Stevenson, Washington. Jen is considered to be an up-and-coming artist in the region. "When I draw it is literally a celebration and declaration of my love for the subject. I am transfixed by the intricacies of nature and marvel at the perfection, details, the patterns, and the energy that resides in it all. Being a sensitive-person, I am left with no other option but to react to this exquisite world through drawing."
