Hi and welcome to my website. My name is Jackie Birmingham. I am the artist of J Birmingham Art. I am a self-taught artist out of Broken Arrow, OK with a focus in oil painting. Painting is my passion! After many years as an Oncology Nurse, and Nurse Educator, I have chosen to follow that passion.
Sketching and painting have been in my heart since early childhood. However, being born and raised in the small town of Poplar Bluff, MO art was not encouraged as a lucrative means of employment. Therefore, I chose nursing as my overarching career. During that time, I met many wonderful people and developed amazingly rewarding relationships. After 34 years, I decided to transition into the world of retirement. Without hesitation, I jumped back into sketching and painting.
I keep my subject matter open. This helps me to grow and experiment with new techniques and mediums. I love to preserve precious memories on canvas through pet portraits and remembrance portraits or create unique gifts with original paintings. I receive inspiration through scripture, song, and the beauty of nature. I say "receive" because I often feel the art comes to me. I encounter something and feel called to paint it. A journey begins with every brushstroke. My original paintings typically have an underlying inspirational, thought-provoking message. A little hint of the message lies in the title.
I look forward to working with you to create a unique and personalized painting for yourself or someone special. Contact me via email at jbirmingham.art@gmail.com or click the contact button below to complete the contact form.
