Jennifer McEuen

Jennifer was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1988. In the earliest years of her life, she lived in Los Altos, California where many of her earliest memories were of her making art. In 1994 she moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. Growing up in Utah, she consistently studied art through out her adolescence, and in 2006 began studying oil painting with BYU art professor Sydney Bowman. In 2006-2007 she began taking independent college art courses with Sydney.

In 2008, she received a scholarship to The Academy of Art University in San Francisco where she looked forward to continuing her artistic education and pursuing her passion for painting. After studying painting at the Academy for two and a half years, Jennifer decided to accelerate her independent ideas of art and began an internship with San Francisco-based artist Hilary Williams whom she worked with for several months. During her experience in the unique city of San Francisco, she was greatly inspired by the diverse and rich culture the city possessed and enriched by the abounding palette of different art forms and unified vision of humanity within the community.

In 2011, Jennifer moved back to Salt Lake City for 9 months and began deeply focusing on her new work as an inspired artist-entrepreneur. During this time, she worked with Shiloh Sophia McCloud and participated in her BLOOMING ARTISTS program where she was able to create a foundation for her art and business. Shortly after the program, she moved back to the Bay Area as a trampoline knowing she was heading to Europe, somehow.

In 2012, Jennifer traveled to Italy to attend the ‘Expanded Visions’ painting seminar to study the renaissance painting technique called the ‘Misch Technik’. Here, she was introduced to this lineage of art with international artists Laurence Caruana, Maura Holden, Amanda Sage, and A. Andrew Gonzalez.

In 2014, Jennifer studied with Philip Rubinov Jacobson and Mantra Cora in Boulder, CO to deepen her study of the Mische technique and to explore the diversity in this lineage. Here, she was greatly inspired by Philip and his way of teaching. She studied with him again in Payerbach, Austria the summer of 2016.

Jennifer has relentlessly exhibited her work in galleries and locations in the United States, such as Salt Lake City, Ukiah, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Berkeley, Denver, Spokane, and Internationally in Brazil, Austria, England, and France.

Currently, she is residing in Southern Idaho; working full time in her art studio, raising her sweet son Tyden; with her loving and devoted husband Ryan.
