Artist Comments
A barn owl perches watchfully on a fence post, surveying a tranquil pasture. On the field, a small herd of horses grazes in the fading light of sunset. Behind them, the moon rises over a stand of midsummer trees. Made with brown and white eggshells, artist Jennifer Ross captures a moment of stillness.
About the Artist
Artist Jennifer Ross finds inspiration in gathering and replicating fragments of nature. "Birds, nests, eggs, and horses represent my realization that life embodies a tension between wanting security and the love of freedom," says Jennifer. Through her art, she aspires to convey a healing power inspired by the living world. Jennifer initially aspired to follow her mother and grandfather's artistic path but took a detour and began a decade-long career working in art galleries, selling the artwork of others, and doing framing design. Eventually, her creative soul persisted. She began experimenting with small pastel pieces and later found her unique style in incorporating elements, such as broken eggshells, inspired by the Japanese art of mending pottery with gold called Kintsugi. Jennifer transforms her second-largest bedroom into a studio, immersing herself in the sounds of birds or her son's college radio program while working.

Two horses stand side by side, bathed in the glow of a full moon. Artist Jennifer Ross titled this piece after the expression, “I love you to the moon and back.†She used her signature eggshell collage technique combined with acrylic paint and paper to add texture and depth to the composition. By extending the artwork to the sides, Jennifer enhances its dimensionality.

Artist Jennifer Ross presents a still life of a bird's nest on a light and airy background. The layered textures contrast the simplicity of the composition. She uses her eggshell collage technique on the eggs and sculpts the strands of the nest with an acrylic gel medium. "It's about starting to see life in an entirely new way," says Jennifer.
About the Artist

"The beauty of the earth and the mystery of the universe converge," says Brit of this abstracted modernist landscape. "The three moons beg the question as to where this beautiful valley is to be found. I don't claim to know the answer, but I believe in its existence." The highly textured surface and low relief effects are created by a combination of embossed papers and layering of acrylic paint.
