Fine Art TV Series - Colour In Your Life
Season - 06
Episode - 01
Filmed on Location at - QLD, Australia
Jen Denise Stark is a self taught artist who has, through dedication, persistence and experimenting, pushed through bad experiences to find her calling.
Painting is great therapy, giving so much satisfaction, not only to the artist themselves but to those who view the work. Jen Denise Stark likes to add a little something unusual to her works; little surprises that will not be seen at first glance. She has been inspired by the works of Amanda Krantz since 2066, and aspires to her techniques. In the interim however, she has found her own, and from these crafted works of intricate colour and beauty.
Jen Denise Stark is a proud self expressed Australian Artist creating unique floral works on canvas. She uses various un traditional methods and tools to achieve the unusual results whilst working from her personal studio in Toowoomba Queensland. she was raised in the outback of Western Queensland on a 2,500 acre property 3 Kilometers outside of a small town called Miles.
Here she grew up in the bush where exploring nature was part of everyday life. Jen studied closely the layers of various plant lives, sometimes by pulling it apart to see how it was made. The hidden qualities she found always amazed her. By the age of 8, Jen realized that there were patterns and shapes that kept recurring in nature. With further research into the plant world as an art form, Jen found that all plants have the same mathematics that go into producing such intricate patterns in nature.
Through her passion for the plant life and living so closely with nature as a child, she was encouraged to pursue her passion in painting and has dedicated her life to creating pieces that utilise these shapes and patterns that became a part of her life as a child. In her works she uses a free flow approach utilizing various pours, squirts, runs, a little gravity, and a little time, to imitate nature in all its forms hence exaggerating the unseen qualities of flora and fauna. Jen let the paint depict the direction in which the piece will flow, she only facilitates each layer as it flows onto the canvas.
Jen bonds with each piece through texture, touch, colour, emotion and music. Only then can she use the method of subtraction and addition throughout each layer before delving into her subconscious memory to pursue the creative journey which each piece takes her on. Jen depicts her creations in an unusual and colourful way, using the principles and elements of design.

Just Magic, thank you!
I loved this and the techniques are so unusual but stunning.
Maybe my favorite CIYL artist so far, and I have seen so many amazing ones showcased. (Of course, Joseph Zbukvic is beyond comparison.) I haven't seen all of your videos yet, Graeme, but I love Jen's work & methods--and especially her artistic spirit. Thank you again for sharing all this inspiration!
+AzRavnGrl Oh wow. Thank you. That is great encouragement. I am humbled.. You have inspired me. I am just an artist who experiments continuously to discover knew techiniques. Remember I am self taught with minimal workshops under my sleeve. That is what makes me unique I think, but I have a lot to learn. Cheers. Jen
Really, really inspiring
she's brilliant and immensely innovative! Would love to see her on another episode in the future.
Fascinante !
Your technique is amazing and thank you so very much for sharing ... kudos from Manitoulin Island ...

Ki ora. Love the way you bring different artists and their works to share with others like myself. Thank you. PS.....love the bike and it's a piece of the art scene too.
Inspiring!...Thank you x
Graeme, program is good and she is excellent. Can you please let her do her work please. I feel more noise than creative discussion.
Thanks Graeme for a fantastic channel. Amazing talent. It's 8:34am, east coast of Australia and I've been up all night watching your channel, I just couldn't stop, once I discovered it. I'm not finished yet.
+Cass Cass Just saw the very end Graeme and, that looks like you are riding past Rexs Lookout just up the road from me.
+Cass Cass LOL, Thanks Cass, I am loading another show right now, glad you are enjoying the channel, just pass the word around for us when you can, Happy learning, Graeme
pour the paint method..wow how great a method
This is amazing!!!
This is unique!
Colors! I love colors...lots of colors...beautiful art...the Centipede. how cool is that?
absolutely fantastic, love your art. Thank you x
Wonderful, its Just where I feel I would like to be going with my art ,I just love the creative aspect of it. so colourful, paints you are using possibly not available in the UK will need to shop around.
That was just amazing.
Amazing colours, I love your paintings, you could look at them for ages, finding something new each time, I am wondering about the white out, how long would it last on a painting or does it last as long as the painting lives?
Marvelous - colourful - astonishing - great - amazing - beautiful - wonderful... ♥
+Mutter Natur Thank you. I appreciate your kind words. Jen
WOW Wow wow !!! That was amazing and inspiring It's given me lots to think about, fantastic.
Thank you, glad you like what we are doing, hope all is well, Graeme
Amazing work - & even better, now that I know that all the bugs etc were already dead. (No idea why I was in any doubt, her work shows that she clearly loves the land & everything on it)
Inspiring ,Thankyou.
Natasha Leef Hi , yes she is amazing. We will have many more great Artists over time, so I hope you enjoy them all, dont forget to tell other folks about us. This only helps us to keep all of this going for everyone out there, hope all is well, Graeme
Amazing!! Not sure about the bugs though, was this a real bug or a plastic one? Does she kill them then... what does she do with them? Beautiful artworks here!!
Stunning artwork. I'm blown away by your creativity. I'm curious though... How well does the correction pen hold up after years and years?
Soozyboozy. The pen is oil based. Once it’s on it on. I haven’t seen any discolouration in the pen yet. Thank you for your beautiful comments.
wouldn't the salt's corrosive property harm the canvas over time? what are your thoughts on that?
wow
Love her work! What was the name of paints she used?...I couldn't hear clearly.
She uses Atelier Interactives. You can get them on Amazon.
wow i think Lewis carol would of loved them paintings i know i do
+Andy Coakes Wow, I think that is the best complement I could have recieved. Thank you man...
no problem i live near the village where lewis carol had the ideas for Alice in wonderland
I find them dead. I am always on the look out for dehydrated insects. This centepede was found right at my back door. Dead. Now he gets to live on. I love all nature. Plants and animals. Thank you for your kind words. Please join me on facebook. Jen's Smart Arts.
Jen
what white pen is she using, I cannot find it on the net?
It looks like a Pentel white out pen thumbs.ebaystatic.com/images/g/HpAAAOxyTjNSeLww/s-l225.jpg
Pascale Tichelaar-Rakers It's a correction pen . you find it easly in every stationary supply shop .☺
It's just a fine-tipped Pentel liquid correction pen like the others said (a bit like liquid paper?) but this one has less of the nasty chemicals in it - you know, the ones that silly people sniff? Probably a good idea if using for a prolonged period. Good luck www.megaofficesupplies.com.au/pentel-correction-pen-zl31-fine-pt-4178/?gclid=CMHMlNKuhNQCFZ0EKgod_goIxA
Thanks Graeme, your videos are so great and you have helped me so much. The artists you work with are ASTOUNDING! I'm going to be an avid follower by subscribing to you - can't thank you enough. Can I get in touch with you personally via email or even by snail mail?
Thanks for your kind words, yes Art will definitely help heal the inner part of your life, unfortunately nature does what it does to the outer part of who we are. Thanks for subscribing and tell your friends, we are crossing the world with the idea now, Graeme
Hi Graeme, thanks for your wonderful channel. For the first time today I have used the subtitle/cc function on two different programmes, specifically to get the names of products as living overseas they can differ. First one I thought it was just an error (or 10) but this one is even worse, does anyone bother checking these before they are aired?? Obviously not. I am very surprised from what I had always thought of as being very professionally produced but e.g. potassium permanganate is translated as potassium panorama. To be honest there are so many errors here it is a joke. I had to turn off the cc it became so irritating. Please correct or remove. Perhaps a list of products used would help?
Hi Lou, I'll look into this one. We do trust the people that are doing these for us however there can be errors when translating. We don't currently have the time to completely review every episodes cc so appreciate it when errors can be pointed out so we can fix. If you can email jenny@colourinyourlife.com.au any issues you come across so she can fix them. Thanks
Hi Lou, it looks like the subtitles for this video are the UA-cam generated ones not our own srt. files. UA-cam has great difficulty in translating the Aussie accent as it is a computer generated translation so I don't use it. I am still in the process of uploading the srt (CC Files) for all of our videos that have been created by real people. This will take some months for me to do as it is a long process. Seasons 11 onward are all our own srt files so if you do see any errors in those episodes please let me know. Thanks
Jenny
Incredible however I can't help but think are these bugs being drowned in glue while still alive?? Totally interrupted my art flow if that's how they freeze , or are they dead prior to?
No Diana they are dead. Jen finds these creatures around her property when they have died
Diana Rubio Very dead and dehydrated when I find them. No bugs are harmed. Xx
I see a lot of water used in this technique...yet its known over time to flake if more than 30% ratio is used...what is your thoughts on this?
well it is better to add medium to any glaze or watercolor layer in acrylic, if the painting is sealed with an isolation coat of polymer emulsion (most popular being gloss medium varnish) then the film should be fine and last a long time without flaking, acrylic is durable that way!
L Cecka Hi , yes she is amazing. We will have many more great Artists over time, so I hope you enjoy them all, dont forget to tell other folks about us. This only helps us to keep all of this going for everyone out there, hope all is well, Graeme
gio penn Thanks for responding as this was confusing me
Graeme Stevenson (Colour in Your Life) lcecka.artistwebsites.com I am an artist myself and I think its good to try and connect
L Cecka Thanks for getting back, we are just now putting a trip together to come to the states to begin filming for the series over there, our agents are planning on distributing the shows to about 35 countries world wide. We are doing an email blast with Daniel Smith paints very soon to tell Artists of the chance to be on board, hope all is well and thanks heaps for commenting , Graeme
Join me on facebook.
Jennifer Denise Stark lovely
I like it and tried it and failed 😂😂
There is no failing in art. Just challenges and hurdles that take you on a journey of discovery. Have a glass of wine and relax and keep working through your layers.
and put some color in your hair..
what?? dead bugs on a painting? I don't think that's needed...the paintings speak for themselves
Dont mix his much water with your paint really bad idea unless you want to weaken your paints strength ,,, BIG NO NO
EMILY'S MARSHMALLOW ADDICTION tar. I don’t use water any more. I use mediums now. Thank you for letting me know. Appreciated.
Graeme, love your channel, but you dooooo talk too much. I appreciate the artist getting on with the painting 😉
The reason I talk is that most of them dont know what to say.If I wasnt there they wouldnt say a word
Really don’t like it at all... sorry
