MJ Hoehn, a self-taught painter, creates stunning works that are a harmonious blend of acrylics, watercolor, gouache, metallics, and gel mediums. Her signature style, known as “Splashing Colors,” is displayed on both canvas and paper, capturing the essence of movement and light with vibrant pastel hues mixed with shimmering metallics and iridescents. Viewers often describe her pieces as having an ethereal or magical quality that is truly captivating.
Having worked in various creative environments such as advertising, marketing, and set design, MJ draws inspiration from the beautiful lights, colors, and reflections found along the Hudson River Waterfront and her favorite spots in New York City. Living near Central Park, Sutton Place, and the Hudson Waterfront, she found herself enchanted by the architectural beauty and water scenes, which she translates into her paintings through the lens of her camera. The majority of her art is derived from the photographs she captures in these picturesque locations.
In addition to her cityscape-inspired works, MJ’s portfolio features a series of breathtaking sunrises and sunsets from around the world, aptly named “Sunrise/Sunset,” as well as a collection of dynamic paintings depicting dancers, children, and lovers in motion and bathed in luminous light. Each piece tells a unique story and evokes a sense of wonder and joy. For those looking to add a touch of beauty and elegance to their home or office decor, MJ Hoehn’s prints are the perfect choice to bring a sense of magic and movement into any space.
