Bittersweet Cephalopod, Original Contemporary Abstract Nautical Mixed Media Work, 2018 11" x 8.5" (HxW) Collage and Pen on Paper With clear inspiration from natural botanicals and oceanic life, artist Jenny Brown combines found imagery and her own mark making to create delicate yet bold designs. This work features an ocean-inspired creature taking shape from a combination of paper ephemera on a coral colored piece of paper. Fine white lines and small white dots emerge and scatter around the composition, bringing the work to life. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: The Unique Bittersweet Cephalopod is a creature of Jupiter's sunset seas, not yet found in any other part of the universe. This work was created with antique collage materials and pen on paper.

Stardust Cephalopod, Original Contemporary Abstract Nautical Mixed Media Work, 2015 11" x 8.5" (HxW) Collage and Pen on Paper With clear inspiration from natural botanicals and oceanic life, artist Jenny Brown combines found imagery and her own mark making to create delicate yet bold designs. This work features a gray background that allows a colorful combination of paper ephemera melded together into a fantastical creature. Fine white lines emerge like tentacles, and small white dots scatter around the composition, bringing the work to life. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed.

She melds together the sciences of the oceans and the stars, linking the two natural spaces as one beautiful entity. Stardust Cephalopod is a mixed media work created with pen, ink, & collage.
