Jennifer Hayes

Jennifer creates her signature styled paintings by layering many colors using a variety of tools including palette knives, brushes, and unusual found objects. She aims to create artwork that grabs the viewer from across the room with its bright bold colors, but when inspected closer lets the fine details reveal themselves. Intricate lines are carved into wet paint to uncover earlier layers like an excavation. Thick paint pulled across the canvas is juxtaposed with light brush work and unusual mark making. She finds deep satisfaction in creating work with so many layers and intrigue.

Jennifer's background includes a mixture of classes, courses and studies over decades of being an artist but her constant exploration in the studio is the most telling education and has resulted in her recognizable signature style.

Based in St. Louis, Jennifer's work is featured in some beautiful locations around the country. Celebrity Chef Hubert Keller has embraced Jennifer's work, exhibiting her paintings at his restaurants in Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas and San Francisco. In St. Louis you can see her paintings at the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel and at private airport JetLinx.
