"Painting is my way to communicate the meaningful, the beautiful and the amazing things I see.  For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to share through art – whether it’s something as simple as the way sunlight warms the corner of a room or as complex as the story of how a Native tribe lost its way of life.  The passion I feel when my eye sees how the story can be told in images is a great motivation.  I want to tug at your sleeve, point and say, “Look, look!  Let me show you the wonder of it!”  Jenness Cortez, 2015
