A painter and mixed media artist, she has also authored and illustrated two children’s books: Lielle’s Spirit Bird (1995) and Nick’s Amazing Journey (2000). Kennedy has a Diploma of Visual Arts from East Gippsland TAFE and in 2002 completed a Graduate Diploma of Visual Art at the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne.
