Jane Henry

Since 2020, Jane Henry spends most of her time living and working on a cattle property in the Dumaresq Valley, Texas, Qld – the district she grew up in as a child.

Originally trained and working as a graphic designer in Brisbane, then later venturing into small business and retail, a recent life change has enabled Jane to once again focus on her creative skills. She is a mostly self taught artist who enjoys stitching, watercolour, printmaking, bookbinding, weaving and paper art - the variety of mediums blending  together to become one joyous exploration of her creativity. 

An avid collector of gifts from nature such as flowers, seed pods, leaves, feathers and eggs, she is also inspired by the remnants and fragments of farm flotsam with these objects frequently being incorporated into her artworks.

“I am a forager, a collector, and a lover of things dusty & rusted.”
