About Jennifer Morris
As a child, Jennifer Morris learned to paint, first with watercolors, then with oils, and finally with acrylics. Jennifer started a degree in studio arts, with a concentration in photography, but school was not for her, and she took a break. Jennifer joined the Army, started a family, and eventually found herself missing art. She went back to school, but it was interrupted by a deployment to Iraq, where she started dabbling with photography and sketching again.
After deployment, Jennifer slowly completed her education and earned a bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, before discovering that she did not like designing for clients. At that point, Jennifer began to focus on photography and painting again.
The loss of her best friend and biggest supporter in 2018 pushed Jennifer to concentrate entirely on painting. This focus caused her to rediscover her passion for art and the joy of putting color on canvas. She now works primarily with acrylic paint, although sometimes she mixes in inks, graphite, pastels, and other media to enhance her work.
