Today's guest is Port Jefferson-based artist, Jennifer Hannaford.

Jennifer Hannaford was a forensic scientist for twenty-five years, and is now a contemporary artist. Her underwater series demonstrates a fantastically refreshing new talent – marrying superb technical drawing and painting skills, with her profound understanding of the human form.

In an effort to get in touch with her innate artistic side, Jennifer began her art career with a series of mug shots created entirely with her own finger prints. She recently expanded her subject matter and style to include the underwater series.

As a forensic scientist, Hannaford experienced some of the harsher realities of human nature. Her art allows her to explore beautiful moments of the living experience frozen in time on canvas; life, ascension, and balance. Using sensibilities that were born out of her professional training in forensic science, she understands how the body feels and reacts underwater. When we look at her representational work – we can easily relate it to our own life experiences.

Also, I just released Massimo’s Mirror and Other Stories. Its my first collection of short stories. The book uses fantasy, science fiction, and fairy tales to create a world where a magical array of protagonists conquer their fears, battle forces of evil, and step up to meet their potential. Suitable for the secular and religious alike, these stories are full of symbolism and quirky characters, including aliens, robots, angels, demons, superheroes, gods, animals, giants, monsters and dragons. At just the right length to hold the attention of children and adults alike, all 50 stories are crafted to entertain and make us see behind the veil of reality, and perhaps teach something along the way.

The eBook, paperback and hard cover editions are available on Amazon. You can purchase an autographed copy on my website.
