About Janna Kennedy, multi-media artist
Florida-born, Brooklyn bred, Janna Kennedy brings her love of art and collecting together with her one-of-a-kind art assemblies using antique findings and her imagination. Janna began her career in art as an airbrush artist on the Florida Panhandle as a teen and moved to Brooklyn for a career in the fashion industry where she designed accessories for the Disney Stores and Parks. Janna currently calls the heavy arts-embedded city of St. Petersburgh, Florida her home.

With a passion to create art that is inspired by her surroundings, discoveries, and world events, Janna started her newly found multi-media art style with her unmistakable and over-the-top "3-D masks" which won her awards and notoriety in the art world of her local St. Petersburg, Florida.

• Her "At the Opera" mask won Best in Show at the Charlie Crist Mask Contest in May of 2020, with her mask purchased by none other than Bette Midler.
• Also in 2020, Janna's "Notorious RBG" Mask won Best in Show at the Viera Avant Garde Gallery mask contest.
• In the spring of 2021 Janna's 3-D Masks "Magritte" and "Van Gogh" were selected to be in the permanent collection of The NY Public Library in New York City.
