Reception

Henry is known for her 'evocative paintings' and her works have been exhibited over 30 solo shows.[14][15][16] The Age recently included her in the feature story, ‘Seven Artists You Should Invest in Now’.[17] In 2019 Henry has been featured in Thames & Hudson’s tome, ‘A Painted Landscape’[18] – featuring the works of landscape artists including, Elizabeth Cummings, John Olsen, Ann Thompson, Rick Amor among other notable landscape painters.[19] Most recently in a sell-out show in New York, a majority of her works were acquired by style arbiter and collector Christian Louboutin.[20][21][22][23][24]

Notable works

In 2020 Henry's solo exhibition at the Australian Galleries featured the sounds of recorded bird calls from around the artist's studio as well as a suspended sculptural installation by floral artist Tracey Deep.[25] The exhibition To Paint Is To Love[26] was reported to be a 'sensory and immersive experience'[27] for the audiences as Vogue mentioned, "Henry is creating an immersive show that will capture the sounds and sights of her rural Central Coast studio to give visitors a sense of where her pieces are formed and how she works".[20]
