About the Item

Theatrical reflective and feathered objects dramatically lit, sitting upon a wooden table with a black background. Colors include silver, red and black with touches of yellow and brown. Photorealist oil painting on canvas, painted traditionally without the use of photography. The artist works in her studio looking at her lit object composition in front of her, and paints what she sees. Mimi Jensen uses bold colors to depict theatrically lit objects. Her paintings invite speculation into possible metaphors – California Home+Design magazine Ms. Jensen is a Still Life painter who is inspired by her ideas and observations. Jensen’s education and early work experience were eclectic – Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, Speech Therapist, Technical Editor, and even an Airline Analyst to satisfy her desire to travel. Eventually she returned to graduate school to follow her dream of studying art. While still a graduate student in drawing and painting she was selected for her first commercial gallery show, which led to subsequent exhibitions and launched her professional career as a painter. She has exhibited widely in the U.S., has been featured in numerous publications – American Art Collector, California Home+Design, Fine Art Today, Professional Artist, Southwest Art, The Artist’s Magazine – and for the past 20 years she has been represented by galleries in San Francisco, Boston, Santa Fe, and other cities. The painting is 16 x 20 inches. And the museum quality hardwood floater frame (ebonized walnut stained black) has an outer dimension of 17 x 21 inches. Condition excellent. Artist signed and titled verso. More than 200 of Mimi Jensen’s works are in collections worldwide.
