"I have worked in a number of mediums and genres, but my most cherished is figurative.  Learning to paint the human form in oil has been an amazing journey.  No other medium is so well suited for capturing human emotion and giving inspiration.  I will continue to focus on figurative painting; working to improve my technique so that I speak clearly, and simply capture moments of beauty, thought, and unity."

Jacquelyn admires and studies the dark, realistic and direct style of American artists Frank Duveneck, Joseph DeCamp and Celia Beaux.  As well as contemporary artist, Richard Schmid, Glenn Harrington, Jeremy Lipking and Nancy Guzik.  She has studied the paintings of the masters in museums, galleries and private collections; which is the primary influence of her unique style of representational art.
