Gallery Artist of the Month – Chris Jeanguenat

The October artist of the month in the Art Speaks gallery is artist Chris Jeanguenat. Chris describes herself as an Illustrator. Each of her paintings tells a story and beckons the viewer to imagine themselves as part of that story. She primarily uses chalk mineral paint as her painting medium. Many of Chris’s paintings are framed in beautiful ornate antique frames that she finds and pairs perfectly with her paintings. There is a wide variety of Chris’s work in her exhibit this month; miniature paintings, larger paintings, furniture, prints, notecards and functional art. Chris shares her home in Suffolk with her husband, youngest son and two sweet Pit Bulls. Her art work can be seen in literary magazines, art magazines such as Creative Chalk Painting, and used for art lessons for children in England. Chris is currently a regular contributor for “Painting World Magazine” as a writer and cover artist. October 1st-31st, Monday-Saturday 10am to 4pm
