At 75 years old, Jen Anderson embraced a bold new chapter, turning a lifelong dream into colourful reality. Each painting is a celebration—a vivid interplay between nature’s palette and the shifting sunlight that pours through her studio windows.
Settled in the heart of Central Otago, Jen finds daily inspiration from the region’s breathtaking vistas: dramatic mountains, endless skies, and rolling fields awash with golden hues. The energy of the landscape seeps into her work, infusing it with a sense of place that is both intimate and expansive.
But Jen’s canvases are more than picturesque scenes—they are invitations to experience the world as she sees it: vibrant, hopeful, and ever-changing. She paints not only what she observes, but what she feels. With each brushstroke, she shares the exhilaration of following one’s passion, absolute proof that it’s never too late to let colour and light guide you toward your true calling.
