Welcome to Jenjo Art!

About the Artist

Jenjo is a Canadian artist residing on the foggy shores of Newfoundland with her husband, their dogs, and a grumpy pet chameleon. While she has always been creative, and eager to learn, she began her art journey a little later than most; after being told in high school that her art was not good enough, she stopped drawing for 20 years! Jenjo finally picked up a paintbrush in 2018 at the age of 36 at a couples’ Paint Nite event with some friends and has been learning and evolving in her art practice ever since.

Jenjo works primarily in traditional oil paints and watercolours, creating portraits and still life paintings of food, but she loves to dabble in a lot of different mediums. You can find her past and current works on Instagram & Facebook, and you can watch livestreams of her art by following her on Twitch.

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.”

“Wiggles” octopus watercolour, original artwork

Painted on high quality paper in archival quality watercolour and ink, Wiggles is a real beauty to behold in person. His tentacles and eyes are decorated with gold India ink to complement his deep teals and purples, and his shading grounds him to the paper to make him look alive!
