Jackie paints contemporary landscapes and abstracts. She loves the out of doors and to bring the atmosphere and beauty of the natural world into people’s homes. One painting on the wall of a home brings the outside environment inside and the room comes to life. The viewer is able to share in her experience.

‘On the Journey North’ was painted after a snowy journey to Scotland, and other large paintings include work inspired by Cornwall and the Greek Islands as well as the beautiful area around Richmond where she lives. ‘Night on Richmond Hill’ was created on the hottest night ever recorded, the moon shining on the Hill.

She works mainly from drawings and oil sketches done in the open air.

Jackie is a graduate of Camberwell College of Arts, London. After a successful career in media and publishing management she is now a full time artist, based at Kew Studio.
