About The Artist

“I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.” - Frida Kahlo

Jenna Hubbard is a self-taught artist who uses a powerful fusion of confronting yet calming imagery that invites viewers to explore the depths of their own emotions and existential inquiries. Her work is characterized by a unique blend of symbolism drawn from Mother Nature and her inhabitants, serving as a medium to convey profound messages about the coexistence of life and death and the beauty in the human experience.

One of Jenna's distinctive motifs involves portraying animals in poignant states—often in the throes of death or depicted in visceral scenes, juxtaposed against gentle elements of nature like flowers, bees, and the ocean. These images serve as symbolic references, pointing toward Mother Nature's resilience and her great capacity to hold space for healing.

Jenna's art is not merely visual; it is a catalyst for meditative introspection and a call to contemplate the profound questions of existence. Her pieces inspire viewers to ponder on what it means to be present, to confront mortality, and to recognize the transformative power of embracing personal adversity as strength.
