Jacqueline Levy
Inspired by nature, humanity, and a unique ability to find beauty in the ordinary, Jacqueline sees her work as a celebration of the simple things around us. Through harmonious palettes, she conveys emotion and brings stillness to the chaos of modern life.

After years in fashion and interior design, working across the globe, settling in Italy sparked a new determination and stylistic commitment. Now, she devotes herself exclusively to her art.
Her works feel deeply personal: “My earliest childhood memories are of lying on the rug, drawing for hours. Painting takes me straight back to that place, like going down a rabbit hole. In a way, I have always been an artist - whether painting faces in the fashion industry or designing spaces for clients. Studying art formally gave me the license to paint, express, and create.”
This body of work explores my personal journey as a woman and is influenced by the amazing women I have encountered in my life. The vulnerable space we inhabit. The desire to be seen juxtaposed with the need to disappear. Exploring the emotional, secretive, sensual and resilient journey of being a woman.
These paintings emerged from a personal need to escape into an immersive space of colour and form, exploring the tension between shapes and the joy of being liberated from reality's constraints. They embrace random mark-making, texture, and colour in an emotive, unguarded way.
The beautiful and frivolous moments that are part and parcel of living in Italy have inspired these works.
The “After Dark” works strip the subject of detail to explore monochromatic shapes and outlines. These silhouettes were inspired by the beauty of shadows and an obsession with flowers. I never feel at peace in my home without flowers.
