Gentle Giant
Looking at the artwork of Minneapolis-based artist and animal lover Jennifer Davis
I am struck by her brilliant color harmonies and by the delicate strangeness
of her menagerie. Her paintings to me are like windows onto ethereal worlds
and stories that I don't fully understand but would love to inhabit.

When I wrote to Jennifer about being featured on Animalarium,
she was very sweet and linked me to some interesting interviews
which she talks about her life, passions, work process and projects.
I am not going to add any more words, but I'll let this gallery
of some of my favorite artworks
do the talking.

You can follow Jennifer through her flickr stream, website and blog
and buy her original paintings and limited edition prints on etsy.

ReplyDeletestrange and funny and touching!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Animalarium! xoxo-jd
ReplyDeleteI love these, thanks again for introducing me to a wonderful artist.
ReplyDeleteUsually there is one image in a collection that I can say is my favourite or that touches me more than the rest, but not this time. Some, like "Unhinged" are quite disturbing, but all are fascinating and engaging. Wonderful! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love her work so much! She also was kind enough to do an interview with me for my blog:
