Jennifer Williams, originally from Australia and now based in New York City, is a contemporary oil painter whose work vibrantly celebrates landscapes, cityscapes, and the human figure. Using gesture, line, and form, she evokes the movement and illumination she sees in the world, often blending realistic details with touches of fantasy. A visit to her studio feels like stepping into one of her paintings: moonlit alleyways, the long shadows of Lower Manhattan, the warm glow of Parisian cafés, and the pulsing lights of Times Square all come alive under her brush. Her techniques—texturing, glazing, and painting on metal with transparent oil glazes —invite viewers to feel the energy of each scene. Williams’s art mirrors her adventurous, risk-taking spirit and conveys the joy she finds in both untamed nature and bustling urban life. Raised on a remote property in the foothills of Australia’s Snowy Mountains, she developed a deep appreciation for wild landscapes that continues to fuel her vivid imagination.
