Jennifer Siekmann was born in Baltimore, Maryland, but moved to the West Coast as a child where she spent many wonderful summers on the beach.
Jennifer has painted for as long as she can remember. Her father was the first to recognize her artistic gift, and she received her first set of oils from him when she was 10 years old. She has been hooked ever since, although she now prefers to paint with acrylics because of their versatility. Her art professors in college also strongly encouraged her, and she earned a Bachelor of Fine Art with an emphasis in painting in 1999.
Jennifer says that she finds inspiration all around her; nature has always been her perfect muse. As an artist, her techniques are learned and adapted from peers, mentors, and from within herself to find her own sense of style and expression that transforms from one image to the next.
