Jennifer Arnold resides in Corpus Christi, Texas, where she has maintained a studio practice since receiving her MFA from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi in 2009.

Objects, architecture, and nature within and near her home inform Arnold's work. She communicates her observations, with often delicate pieces, and integrates her thoughts into photography, collage, sculpture, utilizing a photographic technique Canvas Peels. The Canvas Peels are her most unique works. The process began as an accident, and fortunately, through tireless experimenting, was able to reproduce it and control it. Each leaf, article of clothing, etc. is photographed individually, printed on canvas, and then the image is released from the canvas leaving a transparent, archival image/object. These images are pliable and are adhered to a wire armature creating an object both real and surreal.

Arnold serves as Co-Chair for the Board of Directors, and Chair of the Exhibitions Committee for K Space Contemporary; a 501(c)3 non-profit contemporary art space in downtown. She served as adjunct professor as well as the academic advisor for the arts at TAMUCC for many years. She is now Assistant Professor of Art and Director of University Galleries for the Department of Art + Design at TAMUCC.
