Artist of the Month: Jenni Eden

“The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting.”
Vincent van Gogh




Jenni Eden, an eclectic bold imaginative artist, originally from UK and currently living in Oman, has always been fascinated with painting and loved the play of light and colour on objects and people. Her Artwork gained popularity since 2003 and often exhibited, admired and sold around the world.  She completed a BA (Hons) in Fine Art and Drama from the University of Liverpool and a B/Tech in General Art and Design at Wigan College of Art and Design. She loves to work on canvas using acrylic, glitter, crystals and gold leaf as well as various liners and modeling paste. Jenni has recorded her spiritual journey through her work in her book called “FACE2FAITH”. Besides painting, she is a keen yoga practitioner and holds Planting Positivity Workshops that has gained popularity as well. I personally love her portraits and her work on dancers. There are dreams and emotions reflecting in her work and full of life.

Her advice to upcoming artists
do what brings you joy, create what you love and not because you think it will sell........never give up, be authentic to yourself............always try to create what you feel and see in your mind’s eye, don't think it has to be perfect allow yourself to explore and simply create, be in the process of creating, and feel the love and passion of it.”
