Jennie Jones is an East Village artist with a deep love for the silly strange creepy and cute. Jennie has a BFA from The University of the Arts in Philadelphia and is a textile designer during her nine to five life. She spends the rest of her time devoted to her painting. Jennie and her husband Sean (the Yoda of screen printing) created Planet Zoot and collaborate together turning her art into screen printed posters, apparel, skateboards and whatever you can push a squeegee or drag a paintbrush across. Coney Island has truly won her heart, and creating this poster has been an absolute dream come true.
