Biography:
Jen Hewett is a printmaker, surface designer, textile artist and teacher. A lifelong Californian, Jen combines her love of loud prints and saturated colors with the textures and light of the California landscapes to create highly-tactile, visually-layered, printed textiles.
When she’s not creating in her San Francisco studio or teaching her popular block printing classes, she can be found hiking, cycling on San Francisco’s less-hilly streets, or hiding out at her neighborhood wine bar.
