About Jennifer Tomes
Experience
I have been creating art since childhood. Watching my father paint as I grew up led me to embrace colors, shapes, and the outpouring of passion into a piece. I primarily work in watercolor, but I am always learning and evolving as an artist, constantly experimenting with new techniques and media. Inspired by the world around me, I use art to express my love of God, nature, and all things that strike me as beautiful and interesting.
Style
My paintings are often colorful and loose, full of movement, with elements of detail to draw the viewer into the pieces. My work is inspired by the beauty of nature, the power of faith, and the simple joys of life.
Process
Every original artwork piece I create starts with a vision that serves as my guide, but I find that the most beautiful and fulfilling work comes when I allow the materials and my instincts to lead me through the creative process. It's in these moments of discovery that I find new dimensions of expression and beauty.
