About

Hi, I'm Jenni.

I'm an Australian artist, illustrator, graphic designer, surface pattern designer and animator based in Northern NSW.

My creative journey began in the kitchen. At just sixteen, I bought my first café, and after many years in hospitality I discovered another passion—painting. What started as oil painting soon grew into illustration, surface pattern design, animation and graphic design, allowing me to combine creativity, storytelling and a love of beautifully crafted products.

Today I create artwork for products, publishing and brands. From hand-painted watercolour illustrations and licensed surface patterns to branding, animation and creative collaborations, I enjoy exploring where each project can lead. Whether it's a single illustration or a complete collection, my goal is always the same—to create work that feels thoughtful, distinctive and full of character.

Many of my ideas are inspired by everyday life—food, travel, gardens, family memories and the simple moments that often become the most meaningful. Those experiences continue to influence my work, giving it a sense of warmth, nostalgia and storytelling.

When I'm not creating, you'll usually find me painting in my studio, exploring new ideas, or enjoying life in the Northern Rivers with my family.

I believe every project begins with an idea... the rest is the adventure.

Jenni is also a proud member of Illustrators For Hire, a curated collective of professional freelance illustrators from around the world.
