Finding Space, Light and Oil Paint with Jennifer Baker

Episode 52 Published 3 years, 11 months ago
Description

Aged 18 Jennifer Baker packed her bags and moved from Florida to New York City to study at the School of Visual Arts, one of the best art schools in the US. It was the 1980s and she says that the school and the experience moulded her as an artist and as a person, but she couldn’t live there forever. 
After graduating Jennifer had no clue of how to make art her profession, although she did try. She loved to travel and moved to Italy with her husband, where she ran a successful translating business for 20 years – but there was no time, or space, for painting.
So, how is it that Jennifer has just returned from a gallery show in Florida, with more lined up in Italy and the US? What prompted Jennifer to pick up her paintbrush and beloved oil paints again, and what happened when she did? 

‘I'm so glad I took the leap and started painting again. It's my passion and I love doing it.’
