Jennifer Hunter
Nationally-recognized award-winning artist Jennifer Hunter is known for her sensitive storytelling of American history and for the quality of light and rich luminous color in her work. “I wish I could travel back in time to experience life as it was. Maybe it’s my love of horses drawing me back in to the days when horses were part of living,” Jennifer shares.
