Art has been part of Jackie's life's journey and this is what continuously keeps her driven to create. With each piece she makes, she allows a part of herself into the world, to release something inside that is otherwise unable to be represented in any other way. Jackie feels art is about how you observe and feel it in your soul and how you see it around you, in all different art forms, music, poetry and in nature. There is also an art in being grateful for being lucky enough to experience art.

Her work represents just that - a diverse range of pieces that she has done over the years that she was deeply inspired to create, such as introducing you to a surrealistic landscape of the inner workings of her mind. 

Jackie's natural talent flourished as she progressed into the next stages of an artist. She graduated from Sage College of Albany with a Bachelors of Fine Arts after learning all art forms including but not limited to painting, drawing, ceramics, and printmaking, Her passion for art has extended into wanting to share her passion and teach others. In 2022 Jackie began to instruct painting in small group settings with students from all walks of life with a range of no prior experience with art to other peers in the art community.
