I Dream of Color
Virtual Exhibit: Thursday, June 8 – Saturday, August 5
In-Person/Gallery Exhibition Dates: Thursday, June 15 – Saturday, August 5
Opening Reception: Friday, June 23, 2023
Jennifer Banzaca is a painter and designer living in San Francisco. After graduating from the Art Institute of Chicago (BFA), she went on to live in New York and San Francisco, working as a digital designer for animation and children’s book publishing. In 2004 she resumed her painting practice and continued studies at the Art Students League and the New York Academy of Art.
Her current practice focuses on color-based abstract painting and textile art, with diverse influences from botanical shapes and textures, to surface patterns and decorative design. Jennifer has exhibited in the Pacific Northwest, The Bay Area, and internationally. She is currently represented by Voss Gallery in San Francisco.
Artist’s Statement
Engaging with paint as a daily practice helps me build my own universe. I paint colorful fantasies that incorporate shape and pattern in an abstract fashion. Using a process of layering with varying degrees of transparency, I create a world of color and abundance.
My early career as a designer for print and animation informs my approach. I spent years looking at and manipulating imagery used in children’s entertainment. I apply that sense of saturated color and energy in my paintings, exploring shape, color, and light in a playful way. I use water-based media to build up layers of vibrant color. Recently I have expanded my work into creating tufted tapestry. Painting with yarn has become a natural extension of my art practice and my desire to create colorful environments.
A variety of themes determine a shape of a series. Vaudeville, classic cinema, botany, and pattern design inform past themes. As I find new and better ways to express myself, the more vibrant my universe becomes.

Olive Hyde Art Guild Sponsors Unique Art Classes
Reception: Sunday, September 11, 2016 at Mission Coffee (151 Washington Blvd.)
“I have fun painting with my friends, and it makes me happy” says Donald Dimenco, one of 23 students in this year’s Art Instruction classes for developmentally disabled adults at the Olive Hyde Art Center in Fremont. The program, now in its sixth year, was the brainchild of the Olive Hyde Art Guild and its desire to promote the visual arts to an underserved segment of the Fremont Community. Working with Fremont Recreation staff and Serra Center, a non-profit agency providing housing, services, and care for more than 90 developmentally disabled adults in the Fremont area, a pilot program was created in 2011. Classes have grown from 15 students then to 23 students this year. Many of the students have participated all six years.
To celebrate the students’ accomplishments and to view selected pieces of their artwork, Olive Hyde Art Guild, Serra Center, and City of Fremont invite the public to a free reception on Sunday afternoon, September 11, 2016, 3:00 – 5:00 p.m., at Mission Coffee at 151 Washington Blvd in Fremont. Fremont Mayor Bill Harrison will join in the celebration and present an Achievement Certificate to each student. Refreshments will be served and visitors will have an opportunity to vote on a Peoples’ Choice Award and to also purchase some of the students’ work. The artwork will be on display at Mission Coffee for the entire month of September.
This unique Art Instruction Program has been possible due to the collaborative efforts of the Olive Hyde Art Guild Board of Directors, City of Fremont Recreation Superintendent Irene Jordahl, Olive Hyde Gallery Curator Gloria Kim, Serra Center CEO Lisa Senadenos, and Olive Hyde Guild Members Judy Anglin and Gail Blalock. Funding by the Olive Hyde Art Guild covers the cost of all art supplies for each student, the use of the meeting room, the cost of the art instructor, and for the reception. Additional funding support over the years from the Alameda County ARTSFUND Grant Program and the Niles Rotary Foundation has helped keep the program viable.
In the words of students Lori Santos, “the art class makes me happy, calm and focused” and Marsha Smith, “painting is fun.” Be happy and have fun at Mission Coffee on September 11th meeting the artists, viewing their artwork, and enjoying some refreshments!
