Jennifer Balkan describes her paintings as emotionally-based psychological narratives where the details lie in planes of color. She chooses to exaggerate color, in a sense break up a color field into its constituent colors, directing the viewer to particular areas by applying juicy bits of heavily saturated color.
She had a solo show here at the museum from April-July 2024.
Jennifer is a full-time professional artist sharing her time between studio work, teaching and directing Dojo Academy at Atelier Dojo, a fine art school teaching realist drawing and painting in Austin, Texas.
