About Me

My Photo
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Life in the historic town of Windsor, flanked by the Hawkesbury River is idyllic. So much beauty, so many sensory gifts touch my life. My passion is drawing. It's absolute simplicity is it's gift and it's challenge. The gift: instant communication from head and heart to hand and paper. The challenge: to be constantly present with the work, to leave the World behind, and stay open to inspiration flooding in. If not, then pencil as a medium is unforgiving. I've been creating art professionally since 1995. Five Solo, many Group Exhibitions and commissions and creating whimsical art for eBay have kept me busy for years. I love the Miniature. As a balance my ocean paintings and large Equine graphites are spirited and airy! I rode horses from the age of 8,finding a life~long love and empathy with them when my first pony came to live with us. Patches, the fiery pinto taught me the meaning of tenacity, independance, patience, love, and facing my disappointments. Her beautiful red chestnut coat flashed with snow white, inspired my imagination. Horses continue to power my creativity, their beauty and spirit are endlessly inspiring! Jen

Connection, Our own Butterfly Effect..

Imp the Pony Makes The Stars The 'butterfly effect' reminds us that we are all connected, that the gently flapping wings of a butterfly in brazil can result in a tornado.. (or willy~willy) .. in ..well.. Australia! So here is a new little painting from me, a tiny artistic mirror reflecting some of my thoughts out into the Universe and back again to me. My long distance friend Elaine who runs a wonderful Animal Rescue Farm 'Hector's Gate' in the UK gave me permission to use a photo of her cheeky little pinto 'Imp' in my art.. I envisioned him having his own Butterfly Effect on the Universe! Splashing the crystal waters in the Cave at the edge of the World, sparkling droplets spiralling up into the skies, hanging there suspended as silver, twinkling stars. From my vantage point Down~under, I can hear the 'plink' and feel the silvery Shimmer!
