About Me, Jeniffer Stapher-Thomas

Hello! ¡ Hola !
I am a native El Pasoan and has been active in the arts for over 40 years. I have participated in many notable exhibitions over the years and have had several solo exhibitions including two at the International Museum of Art in El Paso. I have won many awards for my original stain paintings. My canvases can be seen at El Paso Children’s Hospital and in other public and private collections.
I get my ideas for imagery and inspiration from the natural environment of the Chihuahuan Desert. I love our Borderland culture of El Paso, Texas, USA and Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. Sometimes I receive inspiration from great works of literature. In my creative process I always rely upon my imagination. My imagination takes over and takes me on a journey. I always have an idea of where I want to go with an artwork when I am creating it, but I am usually very surprised where I end up!

Misson

I strive to create pretty images that people of all ages and backgrounds can appreciate. I want for people to feel amused and content when they view my artwork.

Vision

I plan to continue creating unique artwork s that makes people of all ages and backgrounds smile and think. I want to expand from Fine Art into Digital Art that has more utilitarian applications.
