Enter the World of Jen Sequel
A Traditional Portrait Artist
I am, an artist, an author, and an entertainment junkie. I am curious about any- and everything about the world around me. I am continually seeking to push myself daily and reach new limits with my art & writing. I do not limit myself to one medium or style other than one of beauty and transformation.
​
Welcome to my world.

I never saw an ugly thing in my life; for let the form of an object be what it may - light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful. ~John Constable
