ABOUT JENNIFER
Currently experimenting with pan pastel, oil pastel & oil sticks, Jennifer Cromarty is a self-taught, emerging artist based in rural Victoria. After three decades in the corporate world, Jennifer has chosen to pursue her art practice in 2024 to understand more about herself and how external influences shape our sense of self. Her practice and skill have been built over several decades of attending casual and tutored life drawing classes.
Her overwhelming interest is with the human form with her work reflecting the styles of classicism and romanticism. With a focus on portraits and figurative art, she’s interested in capturing human emotion and energy.
