Jenny lives in bushland near Seymour in rural Victoria. She has completed various workshops focusing on basket  making. She uses local plants to dye to complete raffia baskets. Most of her work now focuses on foraged plant fibres, using orchard prunings, wisteria and passion fruit vines, palm infloresence and various sword shaped leaves from plants, often found on roadsides.

She enjoys the searching for material, expanding her range of fibres and being attune to what different seasons have to offer for weaving.
