Gifts of Art presents Whimsical Watercolors by Jennifer Carson

Jennifer Carson’s love of family and animals shines through in her whimsical and colorful watercolor work. Born and raised in Washtenaw County, Carson is a children’s book author and illustrator, the managing editor of local Ann Arbor publication, The Crazy Wisdom Community Journal, and the production designer for Chicken Scratch Books. She loves when viewers get lost in the peacefulness of her paintings and has been told that God gave her too much talent—but she believes the gifts she received were meant to be shared. Carson was born with a creative heart but didn’t give illustration a serious try until after raising her four boys. She has published her own sewing patterns since 2006 but now focuses her skills and effort on her writing and illustration for children.
