Raised in Germany, Jacqui had a childhood surrounded by the artistic masters of Europe. Whether it was visiting The Louvre, The Sistine Chapel, or too many cathedrals and palaces to count, art was a dominate presence in her life. She began painting in high school copying the Impressionistic Greats. Accepted into the VCU School of Arts with honors she switched her major to Art History and finished with a Masters’ Degree in 19th Century French Impressionism. Throughout her adult life she continued to paint landscapes evolving her own artists hand and unique representation of the natural world around her. As brush and imagination slowly merged over time her artwork seeks to delve into the subconscious of the viewer. Her landscapes and abstracts provide a gateway for the viewer to delve and freely roam into their own subconscious feelings, memories, dreams and aspirations. Jacqui captures and manifests the ephemeral whisps of hope, dreams, wishes, and light that reside in all of us. We should all see the world as it should be, endless possibilities.
