Jelene started developing her "cartoony" child-like style around the age of 10, and realized that, "Hey, art is fun! This is what I want to do when I grow up!". Later on, she started distorting her shapes and figures even more. She paints on whatever she can get her hands on: ceramics, canvas, paper, plastic, and wood. Jelene has just started showing her work in various galleries and even on a television show! (see her website for more information.)
