Jassy is a multi Award Winning Contemporary Australian artist living on the glorious sub-tropical Queensland coast. You will find her working full-time from her beachside studio & gallery set among the sugar cane fields, red dirt and coral coastline of the Bundaberg region. While formally trained in the arts in her early years, it has been a life of experimenting and exploring that has led Jassy to develop a unique way of working with image that feels genuine. Her use of materials mostly ink, acrylic & oils is bold and assertive, especially evident in her use of heavy black inky lines, and a palette as vibrant as nature itself. Jassy's paintings are largely inspired by scenes of the everyday and the ever-changing landscape of her region that she records as part of a dedicated daily drawing practice. Her paintings are captivating, at times sentimental, while contrastingly quirky in perspective. With an intentional, intuitive and confident approach Jassy's deep connection to land and place truly shines through in these unique interpretations of the world around her.
"Jassy's unique compositions broadens the typical view of a landscape. Her bold use of ink with strokes that appear fluid and intuitive with drips of paint add to the wonderfully organic mood of her work, reinforcing the artists's contemporary skillset."

Jassy's love of art inspires her to share her passion with others through classes and workshops. While having led art retreats across Australia and the globe including Greece, Bali and the USA, you will find Jassy mostly teaching art workshops and private lessons from her home studio and on location across the local region. She is thrilled to announce the return of International Art Tours in 2024 with a SOLD out tour to GREECE and a tour to ITALY announced.
