ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Jennifer Brown

We caught up with Jennifer and asked her a few questions about her unique fabric-wrapped bowls, and her experiences so far working with TAG. Here’s what she said:

Everything in my shop revolves around a profound love of fabric and color. I come from a long line of quilters, and I’m sure that passion is encoded in our DNA in some way! That being said, I never thought this is the way my life would play out. I joke that I’m the most over-educated mom in all of Arizona, but my Ivy League Master’s degree is rarely put to good use driving the kids around town. This business evolved out of a desire for creative expression, a need to be occupationally flexible as my husband is transferred all over the country, oh, and some life-threatening health issues that have left me without a functioning immune system. (Yes, I know, you probably want to keep this light — but nearly dying and the process of dealing with all of that has really had a huge impact on my vocational outlook!)

Hobbies… hmmmm… I actually do still like to sew for myself — small quilts for family members, mostly. Also, my hubby likes to do some rather hard core off road Jeeping. I’ve started to drive a bit myself, but my main job is photographer — I’m really enjoying learning more about the magic of Photoshop! I’m also an avid reader — all sorts of fiction (mostly). I can always give someone a recommendation for what they should read next. Yes, I’m that person in the book store that will pull a complete stranger around the store suggesting titles for them.
