Tasmanian born, now based in Queensland, Jodie has exhibited extensively around Australia since 2007. In that time, she has held a number of solo exhibitions and her work has been selected as a finalist in many of Australia’s top art prizes. Jodie’s paintings are held in the Gold Coast Regional Art Gallery collection, as well as in private collections around Australia and the world.
Jodie captures her images in minimal broad strokes of paint, spread with a palette knife. Her richly textured style combined with a dramatic colour palette creates vivid interpretations of nature.
