For the ones who bring the wild home

You don't buy art to fill space. You buy it because a piece catches your eye, just like in nature, and something in you goes wildly quiet. Because you want your home to feel like the places that restore you.

If wild places matter to you, if you've ever stood in front of a mountain or watched an animal move through the water and felt impossibly grateful to be alive, you're in the right place.

Hi, I'm Jenny

Artist, ecologist, writer. I paint wildlife and wild places in expressive watercolor, with hidden elements tucked into landscapes for the collectors who know that nature rewards those who look closely.

I paint to invite you to answer the call of the wild, to feel its quiet wonder and untamed joy. To protect wildlife and wild places for you, and for future generations.

Everything I make is crafted with ecofriendly materials and shipped sustainably.

Originals and prints live in homes from Colorado to coastal Australia, from mountain cabins to city penthouses. My work is featured in national press, and 10% of every sale goes directly to wildlife conservation.

The collectors who find me tend to stay. If you'd like to be the first to know when new work arrives, join my Inside Tribe here. Originals go fast.

From Sea to Summit: My Wild Roots

Though I grew up in Colorado and still proudly call the Rocky Mountains home, my earliest memory is of my feet planted in the ocean, ribbons of dancing sand moving in and out with the rolling surf. This might explain why I've spent my whole life feeling pulled in two directions, as happy with dirt under my boots as water on my skin. The mountains are my love and the ocean my muse.

Colorado raised me wild. Riding horses across fall-painted hills and backed up to National Forest, we left the front door open and everything wandered in: raccoons, deer, once even a black bear. I learned early that wild places don't just give us beauty. They give us joy, wonder, and a reminder that we are a part of something greater.

The Art of Science

A lifelong learner, my love for the wild took me everywhere: a bachelor's in biology, a master's in ecology, and years of field research across the globe. I've hauled salmon carcasses through Alaska to study how one spawning run feeds an entire forest; broken bread with people in East Africa to understand what drives bushmeat hunting; studied endangered butterflies on military bases; and been a life-long advocate for sharks.

Experiencing wild places is both a privilege and a responsibility. Everything I paint is my way of celebrating and protecting the natural world, one collector at a time. If you've ever been somewhere wild and felt something in you shift, you already understand why I paint. I believe we need wild places, and people like you and me, the ones called by the wilderness, will protect them.

Life In the Studio

Nate and I run Sage Leaf Studio out of Boulder, Colorado. He's a civil engineer by day, and my biggest believer always. He helps keep me sane behind the scenes, supports show setup and tear down, finds solutions in my art that I don't see, and has dinner ready when I surface from a painting session at 9pm.

Bodie is the cat. He supervises from his bed under my easel and occasionally joins us on hikes and camping trips, which tells you everything you need to know about the kind of household this is.

In my off hours you'll find me reading, out on a trail, or dreaming of our next ocean adventure.

This is a small, intentional studio, built one ecofriendly painting at a time, for anyone who has ever looked closer at the wild and found something worth protecting. I'm glad you're here.
