Comfort and Clarity

Depicts mountains on the road from Milford Sound, New Zealand, seen in late autumn. This painting captures the crisp air, clarity of light and shadowed wild undergrowth. Part of a series about shared road trips and the feeling of awe that we get when we look at big things found in nature.

Painted in the artist's studio in Melbourne from personal experience and own photographs.

Playful palette knife landscapes to feel good about!
Studio artist in Melbourne.

Jesslyn’s work transforms special visited places and often-overlooked local treasures into pop-art landscapes. Each piece reflects meticulous planning of colour combinations, favouring split complementary colour palettes and fluorescent underpainting. Modern illustration and printmaking artists have been a source of inspiration and influence on Jesslyn’s emerging work. Her current works make use of professional quality artist's paints, canvases, timber panels and brushes. Her work can be viewed in person by appointment in Mordialloc, VIC 3195.

Her lively, vibrant and bold style has garnered recognition, including being nominated as a Finalist for Fortyfivedownstairs Emerging Artist Prize 2025. Her paintings have found homes in private collections across Australia.

With group and solo exhibitions this year, Jesslyn is on a mission to explore ever crisper and more joyful colour combinations, while celebrating the beauty of her neighbourhood.
