"I spent a lot of years living in horrible apartments with no heat and no windows and I think houses were something to aspire to. I guess I got a little obsessed. Also, before I wanted to be an artist, I wanted to be an architect."

"I work with oils because it's the only way to get the colours I want, and canvas just because I enjoy the feel of it, the paint goes on smooth and it's responsive to my brush. I paint the houses I see around me or from pictures and I usually change the colours to ones that I like. I paint very slowly and methodically."

Jennifer paints houses from places that one day she may like to visit. Evoking English seaside towns, Jennifer's row houses fill up a canvas in pastel tones. The thick, almost icing-on-the-cake-like quality of her work radiates a simple charm that is quite difficult to ignore.
