Jenny is an abstract painter based in Australia whose work focuses on the relationship between her art and her environment. Her artworks contain traces of history, of the marks left behind and of the creative process itself. Through intuitive mark making she explores the idea of decay and renewal, rust and rust-like effects, and represent spontaneous impressions of her surroundings. Investing in her creative process, she strives to bring to life a vision of her environment that transcends the features of a physical place. She invites the viewer to explore the moments of change, rust, and decay, as well as the renewal and growth, ultimately revealing the transformation of her environment. Through abstract painting, Jenny strives to capture the beauty of the creative process, while simultaneously acknowledging the colours, textures, and traces left behind within her environment.
