After 5 years at art school, Jennie became a professional textile (print) designer, selling worldwide for 30+ years. Her designs were printed and woven for interior decoration com-panies, major retailers like John Lewis and Ikea, and many others. 

She gave up designing textiles & wallpapers in order to pursue painting and making textile pieces without the constraints of commercial requirements. She has had numerous exhibi-tions in small galleries and mixed shows in London and Suffolk.
