As a self-taught fibre artist, Jackie creates playful, visually dynamic fibre artwork using traditional handweaving techniques. She loves the tactile experience of working with natural fibres and the challenge of creating abstract designs that leave room for personal interpretation. Weaving is a free flowing, spontaneous and meditative process so each piece is an originally designed and handmade work of art.
Jackie has participated in various art shows and events in the Ottawa area since 2021.
Her work has been recognized at the Spring 2025 Pelham Art Festival with 2 awards, Best of Fine Craft and Design, and Best of Floral. Her work was accepted into the Spring 2025 Society of Canadian Artists Open International Juried Online Exhibition and the Fall 2025 Society of Canadian Artists 57th Juried Exhibition.
