Meet the Artist (Jeweliyana Reece)
Biography Curriculum Vitae
"Beauty is ever where – seek and you will find, in the quiet moments, out of the corner of your eye, life is revealing itself one miracle at a time."
The Quiet Symphony Unfolds
A bright flower may steal the spotlight, but I am drawn to the quiet supporting cast of nature - the curvy seed pods ‘n furry buds, the texture of bark with its eyes peeking out. The subtle structures that hold a landscape together. These overlooked elements often appear at the edge of our attention, yet they carry an incredible presence. They are the “wingmen” of nature, quietly weaving the balance and rhythm that makes a scene complete.
Working intuitively, I build my paintings through layers of color and texture, allowing each piece to evolve organically. My goal is not realism but immersion. To create spaces where the viewer can wander visually through depth and detail.
Alberta’s ever-changing seasons continue to inspire my palette and perspective, reminding me that beauty exists in every stage of growth and rest, and that in each moment of life - no matter how fleeting, there is always something to delight in.

Fused Glass Art
Glass ArtI've explored many art forms over the years. Pottery, batik, painting, interior decorating. When I found glass I thought it would be my forever medium but the universe had other plans. Plates evolved into paintings. Each stroke, cut and fit like a puzzle made of glass then painted with frit (glass particles the size of sand) Little did I know this was just leading me back to painting.

Original Paintings
Acrylic PaintingsThe more I painted with glass, the more I wanted to paint on canvas. You can't mix glass to get colors like with paint and the calling of those yummy texturing mediums was just too loud to ignore. As of 2024 I am still teaching glass classes and do the odd commission in glass but the majority of my time is spent painting now.

Printed Art Products
Check Out Home DecorWhen I studied interior decorating, complimentary patterns (my fave) were hard to come by. Add years of working in the promotional products industry, some new technology and here we are. From images of my art I create patterns that often look nothing like their origins. Perfect for home decor, lifestyle and fun fashion accessories adding a touch of colorful, joyful art.
