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

'Baringa Beneath the Beautiful Blue'





The vast expanse of Mother Ocean leads my imagination away on voyages through miraculous myths and unbelievable colour and light. Sometimes I discover a scene so beautiful, so dancing with turquoise light and magic, it stays in my heart long after my return to the studio.. Baringa The Hippocampus is a far cousin of the horse, one who has a highly developed love of the water, a deep longing for adventure, and expression through colour. Baringa is an Aboriginal name meaning 'Light'. Medium: Derwent Inktense Watercolour. Size: 2.5" x 3.5" (6.5 cm x 9 cm) The painting measures 2.5"x3.5". It is an ACEO, an "Art Card Original and Edition" ~ a very collectible form of Art.
