Jennifer Baker is a natur hexe and purveyor of the uncanny. Formally trained as an oil painter,
she currently utilizes a deliberately feminine hand to manipulate cut paper, gouache, and graphite.
With a respectful nod to female Dadas and Surrealists, a pinch of Bavarian folklore, and a deep love for
the surrounding Olympic and Cascade Mountains, she creates intricate compositions that layer
themes of mythology, memory, and magic.
A fourth generation Pennsylvanian, she studied at Tyler School of Art (Philadelphia, PA) and the
Aristides Atelier (Seattle, WA). Her work has appeared in The Free Witch Quarterly, Lessons in Classical
Painting, Lessons in Classical Drawing, American Artist Drawing Magazine, The Huffington Post, Unicorn
Mountain, Wolfman's Got Nards, Maximum Rock-n-Roll, and numerous underground zines.
She currently resides in beautiful Cascadia with her partner and her python familiar.
