Jennifer Lewis Takahashi
Exhibition Dates: May 1, 2010 — April 30, 2011
Jennifer Lewis Takahashi is a New Jersey resident and has been painting for 20 years. She holds a BA in Fine Art and has worked in the animation and textile design industries. She has participated in solo and group shows in the metropolitan area as well as across the eastern US. Her work is in the corporate collections of Bristol-Myers Squibb, Lifetime Cable, Pfizer Corporation and Johnson and Johnson. Her paintings may be seen in the books “Splash III” and “Make Your Watercolors Look Professional”, both published by North Light books.
Jennifer’s paintings use a realistic approach, along with strong color and lighting to remind the viewer of the magic of simple everyday objects. When appropriate, she creates visual alterations to the realism that draw the viewer into the sensation being presented. In this way these paintings of objects become portraits of our most basic nature, a familiar reminder that, in the middle of universal chaos, lies the stillness and beauty of our interior worlds.
