ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Jenna Erickson

 Image © Jenna Erickson

Next up in our series introducing you to our small staff here at Shots Magazine, I would like you to meet our Subscription Services Goddess, Jenna Erickson.  Besides being an accomplished painter with pieces in prominent collections, she has studied photography seriously since highshool and college.   Working primarily in the realm of self-portrait, Jenna tirelessly works to erase the boundary between the narrative and mythical realm. It is worth paying particular attention to her use of titles, conceived not to define her work but rather to expand the notion of what the work is about. Jenna is a dear friend whom I have collaborated with on numerous projects and remains a favorite person to work alongside.  What most impresses me is her dedication to living a whole creative life; while preparing meals for her kids, walking across the snow, building a fire--every act is one of intention and meaning.  Jenna is also now making videos that can be found on her website at www.jennaj.erickson.com.  We are lucky to have her on our Shots team! ■
