Wendy Jagger

Wendy Jagger’s work is strongly influenced by seasonal changes in the landscape and the diversity of native Australian flora, particularly in the alpine regions of northeast Victoria and the snowy high plains in NSW. She revels in painting en plein air, on location, using gouache or oils. These paintings, photographs, and drawings taken from the field are further developed in the studio in a range of painting media and translucent porcelain.

​

Wendy has more than years of experience in art education, from primary through to tertiary levels, and now teaches weekly classes and one-day workshops in her own Mansfield studio, sharing the knowledge and skills she has acquired. She has opened her studio to the public on the Melbourne Cup weekend since 2010 and is the founder of the successful and growing Mansfield Open Studio Trail, otherwise known as MOST.

​

Exhibiting regularly in solo, invitational, and group shows around Australia, Wendy has also undertaken artist residencies at SAM Shepparton Art Museum and BigCi in the Blue Mountains, NSW.  Her artwork is available for viewing on her website, www.wendyjagger.com, and she is represented by Nightingale Gallery, Armadale, where she will have a major solo exhibition in October 2027. Her work is for sale in several other galleries, including Made in Mansfield, Craft Victoria, Tarra Warra Museum of Art, Wagga Wagga Art Gallery, and The Hive Gallery, Ocean Grove.

​

Her awarded work is held in private and public collections, both nationally and internationally. She has completed commissioned pieces for clients such as the National Gallery of Victoria, the Victorian State Parliament, Mazda Australia, the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Foundation, and Mt Buller RMB. Her ceramics have been given as ministerial and corporate gifts, and she has been a finalist in numerous national and international art prizes for her ceramics and paintings.
