JENIE FAWCKNER

A creative and rural upbringing has created an ongoing fixation with the colour, composition and natural beauty of the Australian landscape. This has proven to be a very strong base for the subject treatment in all of Jenie’s work. She is consistently drawn to the freedom of mark making and love of texture and use this as an approach to form a large part of the artistic process in both her printmaking and painting. To take a simple or insignificant scene from her natural surroundings and present it artistically in a way that give it relevance and appeal teaches her to stop and appreciate every little aspect of nature. Jenie’s joy is in the creativity… her endeavour is to share it.
