Graduating with a BA(Hons) in Art and Design, Jennifer then went on to have a career as a therapist. Following the publication of eight books and workbooks which focus on ways to improve our emotional wellbeing and mental health using creativity, Jennifer returned to making art as a full-time artist. Her passion is drawing: colour goes down first, using ink and coloured pencils, which are excellent mediums for blending. Next, the drawing goes on top, going over the line work several times, creating an image that is similar to that of a lino or wood cut. A passionate wild swimmer, Jennifer is inspired to try and capture the tranquility and sensation of serenity, as well as the exhilaration of being in the water. It is the natural landscape and wildlife which predominantly inspires Jennifer’s artwork. Previously from Yorkshire, Jennifer now lives and works in the Scottish Highlands, where she has the delights of seemingly infinite amounts of inspirational wildlife and landscapes.
