Jennifer is a Madison, Wisconsin based mixed media artist, author, and art instructor whose whose love affair with the ballpoint pen has inspired artists all over the world. Jennifer shares how her creative practice shifted when limited time and space pushed her toward a sketchbook and a simple pen - an approachable medium she could explore anywhere, even from her couch. In 2016, her abstract ballpoint drawings went viral on Pinterest, leading to a flood of requests for tutorials and the birth of her popular “Jen & Ink” e-courses. This year, Jennifer added “author” to her list of titles with the release of her debut book, Me & My Ballpoint Pen . She takes us behind the scenes of what it’s really like to publish a book - from working with a publisher to navigating the editing process, and opens up about the emotional journey of putting her work into print. Paige and Jennifer dive into a heartfelt conversation about mental health, how finding an approachable creative outlet became a lifeline, and the ways art has helped her focus, heal, and reconnect with herself. If you’ve ever wondered how to turn a personal creative practice into something that inspires and supports others or what it takes to bring a book idea to life - this episode is a must-listen! 📖 Snag your copy of Me & My Ballpoint Pen here! ✏️ Learn more about Jennifer: www.jennifer-mullin.com | www.instagram.com/jennifermullinmakes","meta_description":"On this episode, Paige chats with Jennifer Mullin - aka the “Occasional Creative”.
