Jaime Moore
Watercolour & Charcoal Artist
Jaime, an artist from Worcestershire, has always had a passion for art. However, after college, her journey took a different turn when she found herself working in special education, supporting pupils with special needs. She thrived in this role for over twelve years, loving the daily challenges and the chance to make a meaningful impact. The role also gave her space to channel her creativity in unexpected ways.
After starting a family and taking a break from her career, Jaime reignited her love for art once her youngest child began school. She enrolled in a six-week course with renowned artist Sarah Stokes, thinking it would just help her brush up on some skills. Little did she know that it would spark a creative whirlwind, leading to four years filled with exhibitions, regular commissions, and her selection as a finalist in the prestigious David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year competition, where she exhibited at the Mall Galleries in London.
Jaime has since found a new calling—teaching. She now assists Sarah Stokes at art workshops in Arley Studios, where she's developed a passion for helping others explore watercolour and charcoal. Jaime loves witnessing the growth of her students as they discover their unique styles and perspectives.
Specialising in watercolour and charcoal, Jaime is captivated by the boldness of charcoal, particularly in animal and human portraits, while her watercolour work shines with vibrant hues and fluidity. Her work often features bright birds, landscapes, seascapes, and more recently, architectural scenes, making her pieces dynamic and full of life.
