Jenni Mitchell

Jenni began painting at the age of ten with private lessons from Leslie Sinclair at Montsalvat, later graduating from Phillip Institute (RMIT) with majors in painting and printmaking. Jenni's further studies include a Master of Visual Arts from Monash University.

The Mt. Macedon bushfires of 1983 were the subject of a major series of paintings recording the destruction and regeneration of the bush over a number of years.

Jenni has travelled to the Polar Regions working as an artist-in-residence aboard ice-breaker vessels. She recorded the polar land and seascape in paint, photography, video and the written word.

Her work is predominantly oil on canvas, as well as oil and pastel on rag paper, pastel on paper and gouache.
