Jana Renee was not born in Fort Worth, but the city is now marked with her creativity. When she moved to Fort Worth from Boston, she quickly fell in with a set of local artists who saw her talent and encouraged her growth. Though she’d never painted a mural before, Renee’s artwork now graces facades and surfaces of multiple Fort Worth locales including the Hotel Drover and Inspiration Alley. Her murals are bright and whimsical, cherished homages to the city she now calls home.
