My art work is always about the world as I see it, skewed through my

brain, my molecules, my nervous system, my flesh, my eyes. Not

detailed, not precise, but generally benign and welcoming, my

paintings rejoice in the physical world and hint at a spiritual one.

My style is often described as containing whimsy, if not outright

humor. The oil and cold wax medium allows my loose style more free

range to play with texture and layering. Along with applying paint

with a brush, I carve into the medium with a carving tool so that

creating the paintings feels almost sculptural, but with the

advantage of rich coloring. I began my artistic journey at a very

young age as the child of an artist so that as soon as I could hold a

pencil a crayon a paintbrush I was encouraged to express myself.

Early on I was drawing portraits while simultaneously filling my

notebook margins at school with doodles and the spewings of my imagination.>

Evenually the styles merged so that my drawings from

life are filtered thru my imagination. Add color, and viola! You get

the Jennifer Yane vision of the world
