Construction:

Yes, this site is currently under construction.  Please bear with me while I iron out the many kinks.  If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to e-mail me.  

T-shirts:
Yes, they are for sale.  They are all printed on American Apparel (sweatshop free and made in the U.S.), they come in Men's and Women's.  Each shirt is $20.00.  If you want a long sleeve or a hoodie, it will be more.  I have not done the pay pal thing yet,  possibly in the future dependent on the response.  If you live in Louisville, we can set up an exchange.  If you are not in Louisville, e-mail me and we can work something out.  

Statement:
         I am working on it.  So for now the down and dirty quick version.  I take images that I have seen and bury them under patterns and sketches and figures and words that pop into my mind as I look at those original images.  After the original image is almost completely covered (except for occasional windows showing it) I try and pull the piece back together by laying down a top image that portrays the journey the painting has taken me on.  The result is a texture filled chaos that seems to make sense.

Bio:
               
                Jennifer Goodell (a.k.a. jengoodell) spent her childhood in Huntington Beach, CA.  By high school she'd moved to Murray, KY where she later enrolled at Murray State University.  Here she discovered art.  She played with various mediums, but finally settled on surface design and weaving, with printmaking running a close second  in her studio time.  She graduated with a B.F.A. in 1999.  Thanks to Murray State University's wonderful art department and a brief adventure to Old Lyme Art Academy in Connecticut she gained the tools to move forward with art.
               
                After graduation, Jennifer returned to Southern California where she worked for a time on costumes at California State University--Northridge and at Universal Studios theme park.  She returned to Murray State University where she studied printmaking in greater depth.  Once satisfied, she moved to Louisville.

                She has been living in Louisville for the last six years working as a non-competitive gymnastic instructor to support her artistic pursuits.  Lately, those pursuits have been mainly focused on oil painting and t-shirt design.  She has shown her work in a variety of locations including coffee shops, restaurants, wineries, and various local festivals.  Recently she had a piece accepted into the Mark of Great Art contest done by Maker's Mark (www.themarkofgreatart.com) and that piece is currently in Madrid, Spain.  Her t-shirts have made appearances at the St. James Court Art Fair.  She has been involved with Art Sanctuary and the Big Bone Art Shows.  Meanwhile in her studio, she focuses on the next painting and what she will learn from it.
