Art Lounge, Cairns Opening
I am delighted to announce the opening of my brand new Art Lounge in Cairns North this month of July 2021

Creating a ‘Sense of Place’
Robert Juniper established a reputation for landscape, particularly desert, painting that used surface & colour in a vivacious way.

What is Encaustic-Wax?
Encaustic is one of the oldest painting techniques, dating back to the 4th Century BC. The technique was used in the Fayum mummy portraits from Egypt and in early icons.

Abstract Australian Artist
Australian artist this month is John Olsen who has been one of he biggest inspirations for my art journey. "To be an Australian artist is to be an adventurer"

Flow On Exhibition
FLOW ON Exhibition

Griffith University Group Art Exhibition at POP gallery in Brisbane.
My personal response to artistic change is revealed in this exhibition from the Art College painting ‘Reflection’1976 with my connections to corporate life at that time as compared to recent work showing humanity more integral with nature. What has always remained constant is a sense of place using painterly colour and form.

Flow Exhibition
In this exhibition both artists explore a creative and abstract insight of the landscape. Jacki will showcase a body of artworks using Encaustic-wax with mixed mediums on framed marine ply.

Dreaming of Encaustic Wax in Australian landscape
I continue to try to make art that is more from what I feel rather than what I think! My aim is to create more personal work that remains true to myself, while often portraying the human element.

ENCAUSTIC painting is a mystery
Is this a sky landscape or an underwater scene? Can you find the mystery woman hidden in here?

Encaustic-Wax with paper is magic
At my recent Encaustic workshop I demonstrated the many ways paper is used.

This medium never ceases to amaze me & provide me with such joy.
