Jen Vax Creative · Art & Illustrated Worlds
Little characters. Big personalities.
Whimsical original artwork, curious characters, and imaginative worlds made to bring a little delight into everyday life.
It usually starts with a drawing. One small personality leads to another, and before long, a whole little world begins to grow.

Come meet the little worlds.
Each collection has its own characters, stories, and personality. Some begin as original paintings. Others find their way onto cards, paper goods, and more.

One of a Kind
Original artwork, made with heart.
There's something special about a real painting: the pencil marks, the layered color, and the little details you notice when you look closer.
Browse available original artwork and find a character or story you'd love to live with.

It usually starts with a character.
A funny expression. An odd little shape. A creature who seems to have something to say.
I draw and paint the characters that capture my imagination, then follow them into stories, illustrated collections, and sometimes delightful handmade books.
I'm Jen, an artist and illustrator who loves watercolor, mixed media, playful details, and a little bit of nonsense.
