i had so much fun painting these designs while secretly pretending i was commissioned to form pieces for different personalities. perhaps these are women getting to get all dressed up for the theatre, a night at the orchestra, or perhaps a just an independent film house and their favorite cafe afterwards? hmm, yes. the coral, gold, chalcedony and quartz took on an entirely new feel in watercolor. can you guess which one you would wear?

speaking of jewels, please take a look at a siopa eile today, i’m honored to be the first the stylish irish site asked to kick off interviews with artisans, you can read it right here. browse the archives and you’ll find some inspiring window shopping geared towards seeking out the unique. i very much like the idea of a shopping portal…the very name of siopa eile is irish for ‘other shop.’ so read and enjoy!
ps. i spy some secret garden earrings all the way in oxford, england (among a delicious colored pencil pile). and a necklace found on an uncommon grace. anywhere else?
I’m related to a famous person!!!! :) You are getting interviews! Thats awesome! And so fun to see your jewelry in use on other sites.
Terrific interview!! Looking forward to seeing your new work!

it’s true what she said you are such a fluent writer! and eloquent, or even elegant!
Great interview! You look pretty in the picture and witty in your answers. Such an interesting girl!
a terrific interview Jenny, I’m so admiring and impressed at your pose and eloquence!
congratulations on the interview, jenny! like everything you do, it was great. i love, love this painting. {and i can’t wait to see what you create with abigail}
oh my, do i have to pick just one?? :) love the painting, and congrats on the interview. that is really exciting.
Great interview Jenny!!! You’re use of language is as expressive as your art, eloquent and informative! You are a rare talent! Love your necklace designs, I’m going to have to save up for a Jenny origanal. The beautiful ring pictured in the article was on Nan’s finger at a wedding the other day. She showed it off proudly to me and Annette and Scott Bowen. I was sooooo jealous, it is even more beautiful than the photos!!! Nan was so happy with it! I loved, that you raised the stone up, the prong setting and the odd number of sweet dangles on the side! Beautiful work!! I’ve made enough jewelry myself to recognize good craftmanship when I see it.
Go girl, you are great!
Hi Jenny, I really love your artwork, I am a guitarist/singer/songwriter and was hoping to get permission to use your piece ‘tuscany’ for my cd cover, could you please let me know if this would be possible
cheers
