Jennifer Hicks is a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation currently residing in Oklahoma. Her Native American heritage provides the basis for her creative vision.

As a self-taught artist, she produces contemporary artwork through exploration and experimentation of materials to create mixed-media pieces that blend traditional techniques with innovative approaches, resulting in unique two-dimensional works that stand apart in their fusion of cultural depth and modern expression.

In her vibrant acrylic paintings on wood, she builds rich layers of color and texture before sealing each piece with a high-gloss epoxy coating, creating luminous, glass-like surfaces that catch and reflect light.

Her watercolor works on paper often incorporate delicate glass beadwork, which honors traditional craftsmanship and creates a timeless connection to Chickasaw traditions.
