Jay’s artistic expression began with fabric as her medium in clothing design
and quilting. She taught arts and crafts and Family and Consumer Science for
many years. She transferred her love of color to watercolor painting when
she moved to Cape Cod. Jay captures the beautiful light in the sand, sky and
water with a gentle style that is calm and soothing. She has studied with
numerous artists and continues to experiment with capturing the essence of
Cape Cod with her watercolors.
"Like most artists, she felt the need to expand into a different medium,
hence her works in water soluble oils - healthier for her and the
environment,. Her oils have similar qualities, but are evolving as she
learns. Whatever the medium, she loves to paint."
