May Featured Author: Jennifer Forrester

Book signing on May 19, 5-7pm to discuss her book and offer signed copies for sale!

My name is Jennifer Forrester and I live in Victor NY with my husband Dave Lathrop, our puppy Hank Williams and cat Ruby.
I am a yoga teacher and Photographer and new author. I wrote this book to highlight the joys and trials of pet adoption and connection with all creatures. You just never know the impact that someone is going to make in your life, and the act of being your authentic self (as all the animals I’ve met are) is exactly what you’ve needed.
My book “Ping and other four-legged gurus” is a love story about connection to animals, the wild and tame. The relationships we share with them, the lessons we learn and using intuition as we navigate these relationships.
 
Proceeds of this book are going to help support the dogs at the Elephant Nature Park where we adopted Ping. 
 
Available in paperback on Lulu.com, Amazon.com and Barnesandnoble.com

Acrylic Paintings on Canvas, 2016-2022

I had read about the population decline of honeybees and started this series with bees as a subject. From there I moved on to birds and other animals mostly from the habitat of western NY.

Living on a historic property in Webster, I’ve been able to see most of the subjects firsthand.

The pieces are illustrative and graphical in style, using simple strong lines and saturated color. The style is inspired by folk art, the 2-dimensional perspective of the European medieval era, US national parks posters and the naturalist genre of Audubon.

Previous series have focused on expressionism and abstract formalist styles of painting. Other creative endeavors have been with music and electronic sound art as well as postal networking and publishing Foist Magazine, a historical atlas for the post-fluxus movements as mail art, visual poetry, copy art, stamp art and other relative trends from the 1980’s to 2000. The Scott Dohring International Mail Art Collection is housed at the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, NY.
