Artwork by Jennifer Hagens a.k.a. Aurora

I paint under the name Aurora. She is the Goddess of Light and this name has multiple meanings; painting is playing with light and dark and the symbolic meaning is that I wish to bring light into the world through my works of beauty, color and spirit. All my works are oil on canvas. The images I paint are in the tradition of magical realism with lots of symbolism and the traditional techniques of the old masters.

The imagery originate from my deep, intense feelings that want to be portrayed…

I first began to draw when when I was 6 it was mostly fairytales snow white, Cinderella, beauty and the beast because that’s what I could relate to the most back then my life was like a fairytale.

I’m a 65 years young men with a gift of God at birth. I discover that I was able to draw at a very early age, I’ll guest I was about 6 years old. I grew up drawing a lot during my early years when I discover how good I feel creating thing on paper with my own hand and brain.

When I grew up to my adolescence age I tend to slow down with my passion since I felt more responsibility getting into high school and latter on to pursue my engineering degree in civil engineering at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Nicaragua (UNAN).

I was born in the City and Port of Corinto a small Island in the Pacific coast of Nicaragua. I came with my wife to USA in 1979 and start working as an Structural engineer in the Oil and Gas Industry until my early retirement in 2011 due to illness. During my years as an Structural Engineer I start painting in different media as oil and pastel and recently in my retirement I start painting for a first time in Acrylic. Unfortunately I have not been as prolific as I would like to be with my art work…

Drawing has always been on my mind… But I had no confidence and felt intimidated when I picked up pencil and paper. I am a farm wife and allowed myself every excuse to put it aside. Raising my family and farm work took all my attention.

Artwork by Susan van Zyl
