JENNIE LEVESQUE INSPIRATION
Describe your creative process and how you go about starting and completing a finished piece.
My creative process is intuitive and deeply reflective, a dance between imagination, emotion, and the materials at hand. I begin with a feeling or story that calls to be expressed, often sparked by nature, memory, or a symbolic image.
Working with organic, upcycled, and recycled materials, I allow each piece to evolve naturally, embracing imperfections and unexpected turns. Layer by layer — through paint, fiber, collage, or found objects — I explore themes of transformation, connection, and renewal.
Art, for me, is both meditation and storytelling. It is a space where healing, curiosity, and creativity intertwine, inviting others to see beauty in the overlooked and meaning in the mundane.
What are you most inspired by and how is this reflected in your work?
I am most inspired by the beauty of nature, the resilience of the human spirit, and the quiet stories found in everyday life. My work often weaves these inspirations together through organic textures, upcycled materials, and symbolic imagery — especially animals and elements from the natural world.
Each piece becomes a reflection of transformation and connection, inviting viewers to slow down, look closer, and rediscover wonder in the ordinary. Creating art is, for me, both a healing practice and a form of storytelling a way to express the unseen emotions that live between chaos and calm.
