Jennifer Ross
Along for the Ride, Original Painting

2021

About the Item

Artist Comments
"I imagined a bird's nest built on a horse's back," shares artist Jennifer Ross. Using broken eggshells, Jennifer intricately collaged the pieces to form the stoic animal and the egg in the nest. Jennifer draws inspiration from the Japanese art of Kintsugi, repairing broken pottery with gold to create something that is more beautiful because of its imperfection, not despite it.


About the Artist
Jennifer Ross grew up surrounded by the art of her mother and grandfather. Her attempt to follow in their footsteps presented detours, however, and she ended up working in art galleries selling other's work. But her desire to paint continued to grow throughout the years. In 2008, a gift certificate to a local art store turned into an epiphany when she decided to try painting. Jennifer found inspiration in a collection of antique prints of birds' nests and eggs by the English artist, F.O. Morris, and began to create an avian series. These paintings serve as symbolic family portraits of what we all hold dear - our home and loved ones. Today, she is often commissioned to paint various colored eggs representing patrons' family members.
