Artist Statement

Jennifer Holloway Bopst
Recommended For Ages 4 & Up
Dedicated to my father, William Martin Holloway
(1942 - 2016)

As a portrait artist, I like to add non traditional elements in with my paintings.

My past works include a plastic bobblehead series, lollipop heads, even Potatohead makes an occasional appearance. I love the playful element of the toys, in relation to the human subject in the paintings.

For this series, I chose the iconic novelty disguise of comedian Groucho Marx as a universally recognized way to connect us through our funny bones. Groucho was a legendary zany character that spent nearly 7 decades making people laugh.

This body of work is a lighthearted exploration into the human psyche.
The future looks bright!

“Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light.”
- Groucho Marx
