Watercolorist
Jodi Jensen is best known for her beautiful florals, adorable bunnies and
creative children’s illustrations. One of her collectors describes her best:
“Her work is realistic, serene and warm. You can smell the flowers, almost sense
the bunnies’ whiskers move, and feel an incredible sense of peace from her work.
You can truly sense what a warm loving and kind person Jodi is just by looking
at her work. Once you buy a picture, you are truly hooked for life”.
Jodi
has tremendous love and feeling for flowers and soft colors of nature. Because
of this passion, Jodi has developed into an avid gardener. Every spare moment
that Jodi finds, she spends it in her garden both planting and cultivating. Jodi
loves a variety of different flowers both in color and in shape. It is from her
own garden that the majority of Jodi’s works are found. It is a common sight to
see a new bouquet every few days at home on the table personally picked and
arranged by Jodi herself.
Jodi’s
animals have a special place in her heart. She currently owns four Holland and
Mini Lop bunnies. While painting, Jodi loves to listen to classical music and
watch her bunnies romp around the yard eating and hiding in the flowers. Her
Lops, of course, have inspired most of her bunny paintings. In addition to
bunnies, Jodi has three cats, fish, and a Frisbee catching border collie, all of
which bring her great joy.
Jodi
began drawing at the age of three. In high school she started developing her
painting skills using oil as her medium. It wasn’t until her university studies
that she started painting with watercolor. Jodi likes the spontaneous nature of
watercolor and feels it is the best medium in which to express herself. Her
style is unique in the way she combines detailed objects with simple backgrounds
and clean designs.
Jodi received
her art degree from Brigham Young University, which included a semester of art
history in Vienna, Austria as well as intensive watercolor and figure drawing
classes in Hawaii. These unique experiences have blended together to play an
important role in the development of her style.
Over
the years, Jodi has participated in numerous art shows and festivals throughout
the country, particularly in California. She has enjoyed success ever since her
first showing in 1985 and now finds herself inundated with commissions and
continued demand for her work. Even though art is a great love of hers, it falls
a distant second compared to the importance of her family. She has three
children and a supportive husband who is the business manager responsible for
the daily operations of the business. They currently reside in Northern
California.
Jodi’s work can now be found in every state and in many foreign markets. Besides
original watercolors, limited edition lithographs and posters, Jodi’s work can
also be found on greeting cards, T-shirts, cross stitch, gift bags, calendars,
wallpaper and now on stickers. She truly enjoys worldwide acclaim.
