That’s just the way it goes. \nIn addition to her music\, Jerelynn’s artistic endeavors include photography\, painting rescued furniture\, mixed media collage\, and creating cards. In the summer of 2022\, she hosted a stop on the Saugerties Artists Tour\, and her work has appeared at the Emerge Gallery in Saugerties.
