Part of MCM’s mission is to support small businesses in the Mission and Jen Kindell is a local artist that recently joined the market. Jen has been a vendor at MCM since February, and you don’t want to miss her beautiful silkscreened products, featuring vibrant, colorful images of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Jen began her career as an independent artist relatively recently – in August of last year, she started making screen prints of produce, just for herself. After seeing her work, friends and family members requested their own copies. She began selling her artwork on Etsy and at MCM, so that each of us can own a Jen Kindell original! She has an art degree from the Rhode Island School of Design and has also been an art teacher in the past, spreading her love of art to countless students!

Jen is excited to be at MCM because she feels constantly inspired by the seasonal produce all around her.  Previously, she created a piece that is an ode to the purple asparagus from Zuckerman’s.  Her latest is a strawberry inspired by Tomatero Farm (a sneak peek of this awesome design is shown below).  “This is the best market in the city,” she says.  “I feel blessed to be a part of it.”  We’re glad to have you, Jen!  Come out to MCM to see Jen’s amazing artwork in person, and you can also visit her on the web!
