The Big News… A new Art studio! Yes, I have moved into a different space, mainly to maneuver the larger paintings. The studio is still at our home as well as our in-house Art Gallery, but is now located through the second gate entrance off Spring Road in a separate building. I look forward to sharing my new Art space.

I’ll have demonstrations on processing and mixing minerals and ochres into paints, preparing wood canvasses, and painting. New works are in the Gallery.

Please come join the fun, enjoy Art, meet new artists and visit some regulars.

In Joy, Jennifer

October 12, 13, 19 & 20 11 am – 5pm, Saturday and Sunday for two weekends to enjoy Art.

Studio number 39; 12811 Spring Rd, Nevada City, CA

Two talks and demonstrations of mixing minerals into paints for use on clay and on paintings daily at 11:30 am and at 3:00 pm. Enjoy a gallery atmosphere where you can stroll quietly or sit undisturbed to view paintings and sculpture inspired by the ancient ways of the cave artists from northern Europe to South Africa, Indonesia and Australia.

You can visit the Art Studio upstairs to see where I paint, mix minerals and clays, and create sculptures. You can also view the ancient pictographs I use in my artwork. These are in the paintings as well as appearing on sculptures. The meanings of the pictographs are explained and the early languages that these appear in, including ten found in the caves etched or painted from long ago.

Be inspired. Ask questions. Enjoy the Open Studios Tour, 2024.

Hope to see you! Enjoy!
