About
I love creating art. What I love even more is creating art that enhances a company’s or an individual’s visual identity. Taking someone’s dream, illuminating that vision with design and art, is my passion. My name is Jennifer Cristao and I am located right outside of the amazing city of Chicago. I was born an artist, painting and drawing for as long as I can remember. After high school, life’s twist and turns came into play, giving me the perfect daughter, and putting my career in art on hold. Twelve years later I took hold of my “happy-career” future and proudly graduated with my Associate Degree in Graphic Design. Now I have taken my love of art and combined that with technology and design. I take inspiration from everyday objects, people (especially my creative daughter!), and the nature that surrounds me. My eyes, mind, and ears are very detail orientated. I take what I see and hear, envision the possibilities, and visually make those ideas come to life.
