Visual Art – Phoenix
Jeanne Dunham was born and raised in a small town in Indiana. She was immersed into the world of arts and crafts as a very young child by her father who was a speed painter. They both traveled to many cities in the US selling his paintings. During these travels, Jeanne found her passion for painting, drawing, and writing poetry and short stories. In her 20’s Jeanne put her artistic ambition on hold to pursue other hobbies including semi-pro football and pool tournaments. After several years she retired and focused on adulting, until she couldn’t deny her desire for a new adventure. Jeanne uprooted her life and ran away to the desert. She became a massage therapist and quickly built a successful massage practice, which she ran for 9 years. After a few personal hardships, she has reconnected with her creative side. Like an old friend, life has a way to redirect us back to who we are meant to be. Jeanne is the founder and artist behind J Dunham Creations. She also prides herself on being a solivagant. Often heading out on solo adventures, taking photos, and gaining inspiration for her paintings. In addition to her beautiful landscapes, she also enjoys acrylic pouring, abstract pieces, and other commissioned work.
