For me, the belief that "light is life and the source crucial" reins paramount when planning the composition of a painting. Atmosphere is created by the synergy between my subconscious and drafting skills, reflecting my emotive response to the subject matter. I can often be seen sketching or painting in watercolour in the vineyards "en-plain-air" as I believe that is the best way to capture the true essence of the subject.Australian Collections
Amberly Estate Winery; Cape Mentelle Winery; Voyager Estate Winery, Bettenays Winery; Alcoa Australia; Ashton Chambers St Georges Terrace; Bayswater Council: Kempton Morrel; Westpac Collection; Midland Court; Scotch College Centennial painting & Methodist Ladies College. Private collections throughout Australia, United Kingdom ,USA and South Africa.Qualifications
Jenny studied drawing under Professor Rose of the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa, and also trained as a draftsperson. She continued her career in drafting until 1985 when she left the profession of drafting to paint full-time.Exhibitions
