Hi Jenna, I love your art! If you have time to answer I was wondering which living artists you like best or whose work you most look up to?

Oh jeez there are probably dozens I could list, but some favorite contemporaries off the top of my head are:

All supernaturally-gifted artists! the kind of gifted where i have to avoid looking at their art while i'm working on a piece unless i want to end up abandoning it to stare bleakly into a dimly-lit bathroom mirror

a few minutes ago, at exactly midnight, i heard soft distant honking and looked out the cracked window to see a group of trumpeter swans flying low over the fields, huge and white and unearthly, their shadows flung crisp-black onto glittering snow by the moonlight, and then they were gone and a moment later their voices were gone too and in the wake of them was a sort of loneliness that is hard to quite get words around
