The Artist- 

Jennifer A.J. Smesrud


I enjoy drawing and painting people.  I like to document everyday activities as well as urban scenes.   I like creating people that are in their work place as well as just on the street.  I begin to create my pictures with one swoop of the brush, or pen, and then take it from there.  More often than not, the first brush dictates what I am painting.  I love the cleanness of a sharp black pen.  I enjoy watercolors and liquid acrylics.  I have always enjoyed drawing and have been lucky to continue having it as a part of my life both for pleasure and for work.  Outside of my own art I enjoy creating projects with preschool students in the preschool school  I stared 15 years ago, Hands On Art and Play.
