The fox family that lived outside of our fence a few years ago gave me all kinds of wonderful reference shots to use as inspiration for paintings. I finally got around to painting this view of them all relaxing in the sun in our own backyard. I love to paint foxes with their flighty personalities and wonderful coloring. More to come on this subject for sure. This one greets visitors entering the art gallery area at Belle Meade this year. It is a 10 x 20 framed oil that is framed in an Italian wormwood frame.

About Me
- JPJ
- I’m an artist working near Nashville, Tn. Painting Equine subjects in oil is my specialty. Childhood years were filled with caring for,riding and showing horses. Next came graduating from the University of Delaware with a degree in Art Education. I continued study in Illustration at the Philadelphia College of Art. My first job out of college was teaching art at The Sanford School in Delaware. After a few years I married and moved to North Carolina. Next was a position as an illustrator for the North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Lab working on the USS Monitor project. In those early years we had two sons who gave us more joy than I can describe. They still do. We raised our family in Tennessee and still love it here. Returning to my love of horses and art, I officially started my Lakehill Studio business in 2006. My paintings have since been published in numerous equine themed publications on the covers and in featured articles. So, here I am, living a dream of combining art and horses and meeting wonderful people along the way.
