About the Author
Jennifer Orkin Lewis is an illustrator based in a beautiful little village outside of New York City. She is known for her daily sketchbook and the style developed while creating it. She paints a 30 minute painting a day and the looseness and intuitiveness of those paintings have become her signature. They are inspired by the everyday small things she sees, from a bird, a teacup to a large crowd. She mostly paints with gouache but happily throws in acrylic, ink, and pencil into the mix. She spent many years after graduating from RISD as a textile stylist designing prints for children's clothing and lingerie. She currently teaches art classes on creativebug.com and her art is featured on many products and brands worldwide.
