3. Why it’s important to embrace change, imperfection, and creative growth within your practice.

About Jennifer:

Jennifer Agricola Mojica is a contemporary painter, educator, and mother based in San Antonio, Texas. Her paintings are influenced by her journey as both an artist and mother. Living in several cities during her formative years, adapting to new experiences at an early age, and transitions through motherhood are suggested through her compositions. Agricola Mojica’s work conveys shifting perspectives and figures, layers that conceal and reveal, monotonous repetition punctured by shapes, and suggestions of a fragmented time and space.

Agricola Mojica has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at the Royal Nebeker Art Gallery in Astoria, OR; the IF Gallery, Prague, Czech Republic; and Dallas Center for Contemporary Art. Her paintings can be found in private collections and has been featured in multiple publications. Today she splits her time between her studio practice and teaching at St Philip’s College.

After earning her BFA in painting from Ohio University College of Fine Arts, Agricola Mojica went on to receive her MFA in sculpture from The University of Texas at San Antonio. Today she splits her time between her studio practice and teaching at St Philip’s College.
