About jcdc
Jacqui has exhibited her work in Melbourne galleries and art shows and hosted annual artists open studios visits over the last decade.
Her paintings draw on memories of place and observations of natural environments - shaped by travels and just sitting in the Australian bush.
A creative career in design and advertising led back into fine art studio - drawing and painting and finding inspirations in the land. Her art making processes use different mediums drawing in repeated marks to express feelings of being in a location to capture the energy and season.
Her subjects range across landscapes, still life objects to botanica.
Jacqui paints in a series of works, developing new styles with an uplifting and energetic use of colour, influenced by a love of Impressionism, Expressionism and Fauvism. Her art is based on direct observation and sketches on site then developed in studio works on canvas.
