I'm a mixed media artist, author, and art instructor who got serious about art in 2006. I recently moved to Madison, Wisconsin, one of the best cities on the planet!! (Seriously, you need to visit!)

I’m a painter turned ballpoint pen artist. When my time and space for art was condensed, I turned to a sketchbook and a pen and never looked back. I can draw anywhere, including my couch!  

In 2016, my sketchbook drawings went viral on Pinterest, and I was inundated with requests from people interested in learning my abstract ballpoint technique. Enter the Jen & Ink E-Courses!

I recently added “Author” to my resume. My first book, “Me & My Ballpoint” will hit the shelves in Spring of 2025. I can’t wait to share it with you.

When I'm not "arting" or working, you'll find me out for a walk. Daily walks, even in the Wisconsin winter, are absolutely vital to me. I’m a gardener, reader, cook, traveler, life-long Cubs fan, and lifter of heavy weights.
