In 1996, Jowsey won the Visa Gold Art Award.[5] In 2001, she was a joint holder of the Tylee Cottage Residency at the Sarjeant Gallery in Whanganui, in the North Island of New Zealand.[5] In 2009, Jowsey, her husband Marcus Williams, and their two children (aged 12 and 10 at the time) won the Wallace Art Awards' paramount award with a photographic piece they had collaborated on under the name "F4 Collective".[6] As part of the prize, the family spent six months at the International Studio and Curatorial Programme in New York.[7] It was the first time in the Wallace Art Awards' history that a photographic piece had won the Paramount Award, and also the first time a collective had won.[3][6]

In 2014 the F4 Collective produced a work for the Hastings City Art Gallery in Hastings.[8]
