FAQ:
What is BRUSH|REED?
Linnea and I have been collaborating as BRUSH|REED since 2009.  Live music/Live painting.
The artists join together to explore the parallels between painting and music via live stage performances. Jennifer transforms the printed notes of her musical score into lush soundscapes, Linnea further interprets the music into visual color and form on her fresh canvas.  The paintings that emerge establish a visual memory of the sights, sounds, and emotions of each intimate affair, impressing upon each audience member a feeling of symbiosis between the two disciplines presented to them.  
A full history of our collaboration is explained here: about
 
What is Twitch?
Founded in 2011, Twitch is a popular online service used to watch and stream digital video broadcasts. It originally focused almost entirely on video games, but has since expanded to include streams dedicated to artwork creation, music, talk shows, travel, food, sports, and special events. Millions of people are on Twitch every day to interact and make their own entertainment.
