Jenna Caspary is a Sydney based artist who takes inspiration from the beauty of the natural environment. Her current focus is on capturing a moment in the short lifespan of flowers, making their beauty immortal.

Jenna graduated from UNSW Art & Design with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2020. She has had numerous group exhibitions and was a finalist in the Youth Art Prize at Mosman Art Gallery in 2019, where she won the Summer School Scholarship at The Julian Ashton Art School.  She is constantly focused on expanding her skills and has been mentored by Jane Guthleben and Kevin McKay.

Her process involves hand choosing flowers at multiple florists, arranging and capturing them in a photograph and then painting the image over several months to capture their softness, stillness and movement. The background is deliberately kept as raw linen which adds to the natural look, as well as shows off its beauty and prestige. The exposed raw linen elevates the painterly quality of the subject matter and draws attention to the negative spaces.
