JACQUELINE JAX IS KNOWN FOR HER WHIMSICAL STYLE THAT PICTURES THE WORLD THROUGH COLORFUL GLASS.

Jacqueline Jax is a watercolor artist and instructor known for her handmade professional paints and immersive teaching style. As the founder of a beloved Seasonal Watercolor Subscription, she shares her creative process through thoughtfully designed palettes, tutorials, and guided lessons that inspire artists of all levels to explore watercolor with confidence and curiosity.

Jacqueline’s work is deeply rooted in her surroundings. She captures the textures, colors, and quiet poetry of daily life through her own photography — an essential part of her pre-painting process. This practice allows her to become fully engaged with her environment before translating those moments into art.

Over time, Jacqueline has developed a distinct artistic voice through her expressive landscapes and contemporary botanicals. Her loose watercolor style embraces the natural flow of pigment and water to capture the fleeting beauty of Canada’s ever-changing seasons. Each brushstroke reflects a balance between control and spontaneity — the misty softness of northern skies, the luminous greens of spring gardens, and the rich warmth of autumn foliage. Through her paintings, Jacqueline invites viewers to see the world as she does: vibrant, fluid, and full of quiet wonder.
