Hello! I’m Jen, a freelance artist and designer based in Toronto, Canada.  I created Bright Limelight Studio to offer clients my unique style of artwork and surface patterns for fashion, interior and paper products. Using a playful approach to design that draws on nature, food, fashion & travel for inspiration, my designs always start with sketching and painting. 

I studied Textile Design at Sheridan College in Oakville and worked in design & product development for the fashion & home decor industry for over 15 years.  I’ve created products and artwork for companies such as Papyrus, Up With Paper, National Geographic Traveler, Home Sense / TJX Canada, Calypso Cards, Dillard’s, Joann Fabrics and more. My ability to identify trends and transform ideas into relevant and beautiful products is the energy behind Bright Limelight Studio.
