Jennifer Rempel is one of the premier muralists/decorative painters working today. Her concepts, problem-solving skills, project execution, and raw, innate artistic talent are of world-class caliber. She renders both classical and modern styles in a remarkable display of technical virtuosity that is always tempered by a deep sensitivity to the needs of the site and the desires of the client.
A graduate of Carnegie Mellon University with a B.A. in Fine Arts, Jennifer Rempel has enjoyed a long career as a working artist, establishing Fine Art on Commission nearly 40 years ago. She has received hundreds of commissions — from individual clients, major design houses, architectural firms, municipalities, and national corporations such as Alcoa, U.S. Steel, United Airlines, TWA, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and Fisher Scientific.
Her murals and paintings can be seen in many public places in Western Pennsylvania and beyond — from Pittsburgh’s famous “Brookline Wall” mural, to the Michelangelo triptych at the former Pittsburgh International Airport, to a 70-foot landscape mural for a South Carolina plantation. Her work on the interiors of “The Pennsylvanian” apartment building, former home of Pittsburgh’s grand, turn-of-the-century Union Station, was featured on the PBS television program “Pennsylvania Train Stations, Restored and Revitalized.” Jennifer’s accomplishments have been featured in dozens of newspaper and magazine articles through the years. She is a 2026 recipient of South Hills High School’s Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievements Award.
Along with her work on commissioned projects, she has emerged as a fine artist, using hand and heart to create portraits of the brave and inspirational women who inspire her — including labor activists Mother Jones and Fannie Sellins, investigative journalism maverick Nellie Bly, environmental protection pioneer Rachel Carson, groundbreaking musical artist Betty Mabry, and her own grandmother, Janina Pagosa, a suffragette who marched for freedom.
