Jenn Sanchez always knew that art would play a significant role in in her life, but not certain where that passion would take her. Jenn painted for years, with dreams of it becoming a lifelong career. In her late teen years she painted several pieces with flowers as the primary focus, when she was encouraged to try her hand at arranging flowers. Shortly after, Jenn went to the flower market in Los Angeles and could not believe such a place existed; with great fascination by all the species, which at the time, were completely foreign to Jenn. Jenn has been working with flowers ever since, and in the process realized flowers were the medium she had always wanted to work with. More tangible and multi-dimensional than paint and so perfectly imperfect, Jenn is constantly in awe of their ability to completely transform a room as a living medium. While she still appreciates and practices a variety of artistic expressions, Jenn's work is primarily devoted to recreating natural environments with flowers and foliage.
Jenn has had the honor of collaborating/being published in various platforms such as Santa Barbara Magazine, Design Sponge, Method Home, Revolve, Zola, Studio Table, Style me Pretty, Green Wedding shoes, Wedding Sparrow, Design Love Fest, Style Me Pretty, Daydream LA, 100 Layer Cake, Ruffled, June Bug Weddings
