Original Watercolor and Pastel Paintings and Jewelry

Classes will resume in February, 2009:    Art in my Heart Studio

Jacqueline Newbold's original Watercolor paintings and Pastel paintings are filled with an expressive palette of light and texture.  She shares her fascination with luminescence and reflections of light in both her award-winning art and her popular jewelry designs.  Jacqueline enjoys painting French and Italian village scenes, reflective landscapes, colorful flowers as well as teaching watercolor basics and her Watercolor Journeys, Inspirations from Travel Class.

“My watercolor journal is my constant companion. I take it everywhere when I travel combining fine art with mixed media in order to capture a moment in time with old weathered words, a French café scene, or the shape of a sunlit umbrella. What better way to savor a moment than to sketch, paint and portray a feeling of a charming place that will bring back a flood of enchanting memories for years to come!”  jnewbold@newboldart.com
