An Oklahoma artist shaped by hoofbeats, flight paths, and the wide‑open hush of the prairie, I create mixed‑media works where animal totems lead the way. Horses, birds, and the weathered stories of the West gather in my drawings like old friends. Part memory, part myth, part map of where I’ve been and where the land keeps calling me next. -J. Cocoma Hustis

From an early age, Jennifer felt a deep, intuitive connection to horses. That bond led her to learn from many respected horsemen and horsewomen, shaping more than forty years of hands‑on experience. Her lifelong work with horses has strengthened her horsemanship, refined her ability to communicate with animals, and deepened her own self‑awareness. As founder of Art of Horsemanship LLC Jennifer shares her gifts fostering a creative connection to nature, blending fine art with the timeless art of horsemanship.
