"seductive serpent" Painting

I’m Jacs - a painter, mother, and emotion-led artist living in North Devon, where wild skies and quiet moments shape every brushstroke. My work is deeply connected to nature and even more deeply rooted in feeling. As a mother to a beautifully neurodivergent daughter, I’ve come to understand the world not just through sight, but through sensation, texture, rhythm, colour, quiet. My art has become a sensory outlet, a kind of visual breathing space, for her, for me, and for others who move through life a little differently. I paint what I can’t always put into words: the overwhelm, the softness, the storm before the stillness. Each piece begins not with a plan, but with a feeling. A moment of pause. A desire to make space for what’s often left unspoken. I work from my studio near the coast, where I offer one-to-one visits for those who want to experience the work up close, talk about commissions, or simply step into a slower space for a while. This is art for sensory souls and neurodivergent hearts. If it speaks to you, you’re in the right place. is art for sensory souls and neurodivergent hearts.
