Jennifer Lia – from Women’s Wear Buyer to Artist Extraordinaire

Jennifer Lia – from Women’s Wear Buyer to Artist Extraordinaire

My friendship with today’s guest began when we sat next to one an other at the local hairdressers and connected over foils and blow-dries. If I’m being completely honest I was eavesdropping Jennifer’s conversation with the hairdresser while my colour was baking (is that even a hairdressing term?!) and I heard her mention the ARIA’s (Australian Music Awards) she was attending with her musician husband. You’ll have to listen on to find out who… but as it turns out he isn’t the only creative talent in that marriage, Jennifer is also a very accomplished artist – but one who’s work uses paint. Her work is inspired by the iconic Australian coastline and Jennifer has also recently ventured into the world of ceramics (I’ll take one of everything please).


Now although Jennifer has been ‘creating’ in one way or another since she was a child she did had a successful career as a women’s wear buyer for brand Esprit but 5 years ago she quit it to follow her artistically talented heart.

Jennifer tells her incredible story with such a passion and is both real and inspiring. She also has fine taste in hall passes, has won an APRA for her lyrical contribution to one of my fav tracks and has pretty much agreed (she says it on the pod) that I can be her son’s nanny when the family head to Coachella when festival life resumes.


You can see Jennifer’s beautiful work at her website www.jenniferlia.comor at her Instagram account @jenniferlia_art
