Biography

Jennifer S Reid was born in Yorkshire in 1972. She trained in Fine Art at Bradford College and then gained a BSc (Hons) in Textile Design at Hudderfield University.

In 2002 she moved up to Scotland and settled in Ashfield a small village near Dunblane where she set up her studio and began Ashfield Artist.

In 2005 her first solo exhibition 'A Sense of Place' launched her professional career as a full time painter and textile artist.

Her work is inspired by the natural world and currently takes an abstract form. Colour, energy and light are key themes.
