Jennifer Horn is a Brisbane-based illustrator and children’s writer. Her fairytale debut picture book The Precious Plum was shortlisted for the 2022 Little Pink Dog's Authorstrator Prize. She illustrated the real-life-inspired picture book The Boy From The Sea and an entry in the anthology, Our Australian HeART. With a background in architecture and film, Jen draws on her experiences to create whimsical illustrations. She is a pen-and-paper sketcher, and brings the line drawings into Photoshop to colour and polish. Jen has a black cat too! She tried to coerce him to model for more of the sketches, but he's too self-conscious.
Books Jennifer has illustrated with Rhiza Press include:
Skippy Blackfeet
Juniper's Painting
