Jenn Wagner - Sculpture, Jeweler, Painter on Having Life Steer You to Your Passion
Jenn Wagner is a local artist working in multiple mediums. She describes herself as a metal worker who also paints and makes jewelry. She attended 12 different schools growing up, as her family moved around the country and the world. She followed a traditional business path, getting her MBA from Rice University, then lived with her husband in Budapest and Paris. After a serious boating accident made a normal office job unlikely, one day she visited a museum and saw a brochure for the Glassell School of Art in Houston. Propelled by what she self-deprecatingly calls her power combination of confidence and ignorance, she applied to the sculpturing program and got in despite her lack of any formal training. There, Jenn found her real passion and has never looked back. You can see her amazing work in multiple mediums on her studio website at Bronze Anchor Studios.
