She has strong family roots and connections to Cornwall and the Channel Islands, and a love for the sea.
Since graduation in Art & Art History from seaside university Aberstwyth in 1998, she has exhibited all over the UK and won several awards, most recently the Artist Exhibition prize and the Claire Fontaine award in AOTY 2020. She exhibited with the RSMA in 2019, was highly commended in The Artist 2019 and festival choice in the 2019 Buxton Spa prize.

Jenny is a regular contributor to The Artist Magazine, and an online tutor, with a series of 22 modules on painting in oils and acrylics. She also produces shorter painting videos on YouTube.
“I began tutoring and demonstrating ten years ago, and I love it. I now run online courses, available here, and I will be tutoring art holidays in 2022 in Italy and France.
Teaching painting is an absolute passion – my main aim is for students to be encouraged, informed and creatively enthused.”
