Hello, I'm Jennifer T.

Jen Thompson's work serves as a unique conduit between the material world and the realm of the intangible creating a story unique to the viewer. Jen is a contemporary artist specializing in oil paints​,​ acrylics​,​ and mixed media. By integrating traditional and modern techniques​,​ her art transcends​,​ challenging her audience to consider broader possibilities and perspectives often uplifting spirits and bringing joy through color and brush strokes. As she paints​,​ frequently images emerge that are not deliberate. In fact​,​ others often point the images out to her weeks and months after the painting is complete. With each piece​,​ she aims to open up a new dialogue—inviting you to think bigger and see anew. She grew up in Appleton​,​ Wisconsin​,​ and was taught watercolor by her grandfather at the tender age of 3. He was a watercolorist and scratchboard artist. Her work is informed by her experience as a survivor of incest. Art is a reclamation of Self and is been critical in healing for many. She wants to share this tool with others. Art is a potent tool to weather storms from the past or the present and to help shape our future.

I see something different in her work every time I look at it. Her pieces bring my heart a sense of relief and upliftment and I’m grateful to have them blessing my home.” ~ Stephanie Stanton​,​ Collector
