Technical Difficulties
Being an artist, you need to wear many, many hats. Sometimes you need to wear them all at the same time, from maker to marketer, it can get tricky. This week, I spent 6+ days wearing my tech hat trying to get my website security certificate back on line. A few years ago I didn’t even know what an SSL certificate was but now I’m trying to fix one. This basically means that every time you purchase art off my site, your purchase is secure. For the past 6 days though if you visited my site, you got a scary blazing warning to go back if you want to avoid being hacked. This is not a good thing.
So sparing you the techy details, as of right now, all is safe again at jenniward.com, so feel free to buy art to your hearts content and know that your purchases are secure. Thanks for your patience if you visited my site over the past week.
Now, I will take my tech hat off and get back into maker mode. Yay!
Take Aways: Art to Go!
Next week, I drop off artwork at Pajaro Valley Art Gallery for Take Aways: Art to Go! and I’ll be showing some new work from my Lichen Series. The image below is a prototype for the final pieces, I’ve been working on so you’ll have to come to the exhibit to see the real deal! The exhibit is a major fundraiser for PVAC and all work sold is immediately removed from the show and replaced with new work, so the exhibit is always changing. All work is created by local artists and is priced under $300, so come find some sweet deals at the show! Details below…
February 8 – March 19, 2017
Opening Reception February 12th from 2-4
Closing Reception March 19th from 2- 4

Do You You Tube?
Videos are the best way I can share what I do with my art when I’m installing them out in the world, one or two photos just doesn’t seem to do these installations justice. So if you You Tube, be sure to check out my channel, subscribe and let me know what you think!
