Jennifer works from her home studio, and fires mostly in high firing kilns. The majority of her work is vessel based, domestic and decorative, from small to large pieces. She uses a combination of making techniques, hand and wheel throwing. Throughout the year, she focuses on collections of works, either for exhibitions or commissions. She draws inspiration from the landscape, her garden and flora of New Zealand, specially the Kāpiti Coast.
