Jacquelyn Modesitt Schindehette
Master Painter of Florida's Unique Landscape
Welcome
Welcome to my Web Site. As you browse through these galleries I believe you will discover that Florida has more to enjoy than just beautiful beaches. Because I paint from life you may find my paintings show parts of Florida you have not seen before.

Creating art has always been part of my life. However, painting became my passion in 1980 when I met and began studying with the premier Florida landscape artist
Albert Ernest Backus, or "Beanie"
as he is affectionately known.

I work exclusively in Oil.
Being able to push the oil paint around with either brush or palette knife allows me to create surfaces that catch light at different angles. Nuances of color can be achieved whiled working wet into wet.

As a Florida native and the daughter of an avid bird watcher, much of my life has been spent outside learning about the Flora and Fauna. As a result, painting my surroundings became my passion and Mother Nature my teacher.
