Meet Jeni

Ceramic artist Jenifer Oberle grew up in Franklin, Ohio. Her parents, both musicians, nurtured a deep appreciation for the arts and encouraged their children to explore their creative thinking and personal expression. From the beginning, she loved to draw, paint, and sculpt. She began her first children's oil painting classes at the age of 12, advancing into adult classes by the time she was age 15.

On her way to making her mark on the diverse world of artists, Jenifer enrolled at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, where she completed her Bachelor’s in Art Education. After graduation, she entered the teaching field as an art educator, and the better part of the next 30 years was a balancing act between “creative artist” and “creative teacher.” (read more→)
