Hi there! My name is Jennifer Mercede. I grew up on the east coast, yet have been living on the west for the past fifteen odd years. I currently live in Portland, Oregon and I love it!
My art is best described as street art meets toddler art meets fine art. I love scribbling, doodling, being silly and expressive with paint, markers, crayons and/or whatever is closest and suits the mood. My goal is to get into 'the zone', the flow zone, where I can forget all else and surrender to the joy of creating. I am spontaneous in my creation and I love to think on a whim in a variety of expressions, including art, music, writing and play.
I enjoy working with kids and adults alike. I teach workshops occasionally throughout the year. I love to encourage people to free up, have fun and play in their art (and life).
I have the pleasure of working with great companies such as:
KEEN
Oopsy Daisy
teNeues Publishing Group
Thank you for taking the time to check out my art. Say hello! Let me know your thoughts and dreams, passions and ideas for commissioned art ;)
