Jennifer Vranes is best known for her large and vibrant paintings of Aspen Forests and European Landscapes. Her trademarked technique using a palette knife to “sculpt” in thick textures has become a favorite among collectors and Art Galleries world-wide.

The art industry’s leading magazine, Art Business News, spotlighted Vranes in the article “Time Honored Appeal,” as one of the world’s top selling landscape artists. Art Business News later published a special edition on Today’s Top Artists, and included an editorial marking Vranes as America’s “Artist to Watch.”

Jennifer began her art career as a portrait painter but found that achieving extreme realism was stifling. Seeking a subject matter that allowed her creativity and colorful expression to blossom, Vranes painted her first landscape, which depicted a large poppy field with vibrant reds and greens. From then on, she was hooked.

“Armed with large brushes and palette knives, each stroke was a liberation for me,” Vranes says, describing the process of that initial painting. “I had found a subject matter that gave me the freedom to paint with the intense colors and thick textures that my soul craved. It was then that I became a landscape painter, and I haven’t turned back since.”

Today, Vranes has made a name for herself in the art world as an Impressionist artist defined by her large-scale paintings and extreme textures. Her trademarked technique using a palette knife to “sculpt” in thick paint has become a favorite among art collectors nationwide and in top art galleries throughout the United States and Canada.
