About Artist Jen Beaudet Zondervan Contemporary Oil Painter USA 1970
Left handed artist, born and raised in Southern California, in 1970. Jen Beaudet (Zondervan) has always been largely influenced by the beauty that surrounds her. Jen's been selling art online since 2009 when she opened her Etsy shop and started blogging here (originally using the url beaudetart). With a great love of nature, and the beauty in simple things, her art reflects her emotions and expresses her feelings about the subject. Jennifer's art has been described as very romantic because of the beautiful colors and dreamy way she paints. She paints mostly florals, along with wineries in California, Southern California scenes, and some of her most popular...women in beautiful gowns. Jennifer expresses her emotions in her paintings and uses the practice as therapy. She makes it her goal, as an artist, to bring beauty to the homes of her collectors.
Jen is primarily a self-taught artist, although she did earn a degree in Studio Art from El Camino College in Southern California. She put her dreams on hold to raise her beautiful daughter, as a single mother. In 2007 she read an inspirational article in Victoria magazine about artists starting to sell their art online. She opened her etsy shop and immediately gained popularity there. She started her blog "My Life as a Starving Artist" (beaudetart), but after encouragement from fellow bloggers, changed it to J Beaudet Studios.
Jen says, "I knew as soon as I could put some time into my art career that I needed to pursue my life long passion as an artist. I started painting with oils in 2009, when I was given a set of oil paints that my mother didn’t want anymore. I fell in love with the rich and juicy colors that only oils can offer. Oil paint's luster and buttery texture keep me exploring and creating new pieces while discovering myself along the way."
She uses both a brush, palette knife, and fingers to get the paint down to achieve the look she's after. These tools create the beautiful nuances Jen is drawn to. She wants each piece to possess harmony and excitement like a beautifully composed piece of music. Every work needs the right balance that will make it come alive to the viewer. Jennifer's subject matter varies from local California landscapes, to wedding inspired women in beautiful gowns, and from Koi fish to Jacaranda trees. Each piece possesses a little bit her soul, and she leaves the final interpretation up to the viewer, so that they can develop their own personal connection to it.
Jennifer's work can be purchased on Etsy. and her Facebook She has done several commissions over the years. If you would like to commission Jennifer, please contact her on the links or email directly at jboutique@yahoo.com Thanks!
