“Too much sanity may be madness. And maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be!”

– Don Miguel de Cervantes

RVA based landscape and abstract artist focusing on blurring the lines of reality and dreams. Let’s look through the veils of the subconscious together.

I am a lover of anything new, exciting and different. My style would best be described as “unstyle” as I bounce from contemporary landscapes to organic abstracts. I try to capture that fuzzy line between reality and dreams and blur it as much as possible.

We commissioned work from Jacqui to transform our bnb into a livable gallery, and every guest raved about it! Her landscapes are evocative and soothing, featuring pillowy cloudscapes that blend into softened horizon lines, all in gentle color palettes that invite a contemplative gaze. And although the landscapes are undeniably attractive, Jacqui’s abstract pieces are especially compelling. She uses acrylic paint to create layers and texture more typically expected from oils, and the result is a canvas filled with depth and possibility. In particular, one abstract piece is the focal point of the living area, stretching nearly eight feet tall with dynamic swirls of green and blues accented by highlights of gold. The image demands attention but does not distract from the overall décor; a true harmony of form and function.

Jacquilyn is an exceptional artist. She was a pleasure to work with and listened to what my husband and I wanted for our painting. We thought we knew the exact size and placement of the painting. Because of her attention to detail and the ability to anticipate the unknown, we decided to go with a different size and shape than we originally planned because the space looked better with the additional options she presented, She is very responsive, clear in communication, and upfront about cost and schedule. She painted two magnificent pieces, it was a very difficult choice. When she arrived in our home, one seemed as if it was made for the space. It is exactly what my husband and I wanted and we are thrilled with our painting. Jacquilyn is talented, creative, methodical, and our experience with her was wonderful. We look forward to our next piece in the near future.

We recently had our home renovated and we were looking for artwork to decorate our kitchen. Fortunately, we were able to find the PERFECT series of paintings created by Jacquilyn Berry. Jacqui’s work is simply inspiring. We were blown away by her ability to translate emotion onto the canvas, creating whole domains of color and texture that convey a truly unique story every time you look at them. We can’t help but smile every time we walk into our kitchen, they are truly beautiful.
