Krissy Jenkins is a Brisbane-based Artist who works predominantly in Acrylic but loves experimentation of materials, in her mediums and supports. Krissy, is currently a student at Queensland College of Art working on her Bachelor of Fine Arts, while creating Art at her Spring Hill loft.
While Krissy has always been creative, it wasn’t until she was introduced to Art therapy for a long-term battle with mental health that she found her passion for drawing and painting. It was in Art that she found a reprieve and what will be a life-long passion.
Krissy is focussed in the details of the life that surrounds her and in particular the World as she would have it, not necessarily as it actually is. A world filled with vibrant and neon colours, patterns and happiness.
She expresses her Art with intense backgrounds, symbols of life and love and resemblances of the people she paints. Krissy herself is often the subject of her own artworks.
She is also interested in drawing, oil paints, collage, glass and metal, creative journaling and black and white photography.
