My talk 'Meadowsounds: Re-engaging the Feminine in the Dance of Life' was presented at the Seeing Red conference in Stonington, CT. This international gathering of women artists and psycho-analysts was an inaugural conference addressing internalized oppression of the feminine and its implications for women and society.

The Center for Humans and Nature featured my paintings as Artist of the Month in August 2016. My essay titled Web of Life appeared in the Center's on-line journal Minding Nature (Vol. 9, No. 2) in May 2016 and is attached as a PDF document at the above link.

From Editor Bruce Jennings:

This month’s reviews and reflections offer many lenses through which the humans and nature relationship is perceived and nature is minded. Painter Adrienne Beth Jenkins discusses the ideas and aesthetics of her work in the artistic tradition aiming to re-connect our spiritual essence with material form.
