Reader Celebration :: Studio JRU

jru1
Up for grabs: a $25 gift certificate to Studio JRU

meet Jennifer, the artist behind Studio JRU and one of Wild & Precious' lovely monthly sponsors:

Q: Tell me about the inspiration behind your art?
A: Just about anything and everything inspires my art. Nature is a big inspiration. Color. Texture. We are truly blessed with a world full of inspiration. Faith is a big inspiration in my work... the beauty of God's word. My art is something I want filling my own home and I hope others enjoy it as well.

Q: What is your favorite thing about crafting? what is the hardest?
A: I have always loved art and crafts, since I was a little girl. It was just in my heart. I love just being able to create. Whatever. However. Make a big fun mess and create! I am blessed to be able to do my art everyday. The hardest thing is cleaning up the mess. :)

Q: Outside of Studio JRU, what are some of your favorite things to do?
A: My husband and I moved into a house in the country a few years ago and we have been working on it ever since. Projects inside and projects outside. We love to redo old furniture. We have worked on many pieces for our home. Some things we have gotten from family and some pieces we have found at garage sales. I also love to garden and have made many different flower beds around our yard!

Q: Do you have any other websites, stores, where we can find you?
A: I blog at StudioJRU.
I have an ArtFire shop and an Etsy shop.
I am part of (in)courage from DaySpring and have art in their shop.
I on also on Facebook.

When I visited Jennifer's Studio JRM and found lots to like (I "favorited" quite a few of her creations/"items".

As a long time maker/creator of collages, I found myself especially drawn to the brilliant to Inspirational Art: WORDS.

If I were to win this generous giveaway, I would probably use it to purchase my second (by a hair) most favorite favorite(!) : WONDERFULLY MADE (which speaks for itse;f as well!)
