ART QUEENS SOCIETY MEMBER

Jen Ray

I am a professional artist, visual arts instructor and art business coach from Southern California. Most of my work has natural elements. I am currently exploring the relationship of women to nature and modern society. I photograph many of my subjects and use acrylic, watercolor, and gouache to create my works. I also scan my painted motifs into Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator to make surface pattern designs.I teach Color Mastery, a self-pace course for visual artists to uplevel how they understand and use color psychology to create emotion and harmony in their work. I also do private and group coaching for artists looking to sell their art.My education includes a B.A. in Fine Arts and a B.A. in Psychology from Claremont McKenna College with a semester in Florence, Italy studying art history. Other courses I’ve enjoyed are commercial photography, creative color photography, and European decorative arts at UCLA. Prior to being an artist, I spent the majority of my career in corporate branding enhancing the images of some of the world's biggest brands such as Apple, Cisco and Hewlett Packard as the owner of a marketing agency in the Silicon Valley. And before that, I was a fabric designer.Mentoring other artists and passing on my years of entrepreneurial experience brings me a lot of joy. I am committed to keeping the arts thriving.
