About Jenny
Jenny Gilbertson is an artist from Australia, who creates in many different media and art forms, but mostly visual arts. Jenny has worked in community arts for many years, teaching, initiating, facilitating and managing a diverse range of projects.

Jenny has moved closer to ‘civilisation.’ Having spent most of her life on the eastern side of the country, she is trying out life on the west coast of Australia for a change. Sharing beauty, stories, food and laughter are the things that bring joy to her life. You can check out some of Jenny’s creative activities at her website at jennygilbertsonart.com or here at Instagram or here at LinkedIn.
