From The Secret Path at Mordy Creek

Catch a glimpse of the creek as you walk along the path that only the locals notice. This piece is part of a series depicting Mordialloc Creek in south-east Melbourne. It is a quiet place of walks, Birdlife, fishing, water grasses and gum trees. Painted from the artist's own walks here and completed in her Mordialloc studio.

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.
