Welcome to ART by JEN
I’m Jen Allen, an artist exploring identity, persona, performance and transformation through portraiture and figurative painting.
My recent works draw inspiration from dance, theatre, cabaret and backstage culture, with a focus on capturing moments of metamorphosis between the private self and the performer.
This is a place to explore my current works, selected archives, studies, ongoing projects and commissions alongside my evolving studio practice.
For a look behind the studio scenes, you can also subscribe to my Atelier Journal for notes from the studio, new and in-progress works and early access to selected releases.
