Ashley Jensen
Medium: Painting

Ashley is a member of Kodiak’s Olsen Family. She enjoys painting and is self-taught. “I always have had an artistic spirit, so I have tried just about every medium at some point. My skills have been learned at home with research or online tutorials.”
Ashley works with acrylic paints to capture scenes from the archipelago on water-rounded cobbles. Communities, churches, and landscapes are her inspiration, and each image is carefully planned.
“I research each place I paint extensively, learning the history and connecting with the past, culture, and values. It has been a way to connect to Kodiak even at a distance. I am thankful I have the opportunity to connect with others there as well.”
“I enjoy doing art that is meaningful, that people can connect with. I am inspired by people sharing their stories with me. The memories they have and the emotions invoked by something that I painted is the biggest reward.”
Ashley grew up in Oregon and currently resides in Washington State. She is an Alutiiq seal artist.
