Apr 07 2017

Spring, the beginning of a new warm season. Come be a part of Jaclyn Wukela’s opening along with getting your fashion on with Candace Saxson Designs and a Sunwear Trunk Show.

Frame of Mind is proud to present the art of Jaclyn Wukela.

Jaclyn Wukela:
After several years as an elementary school teacher and then full time wife and mother, Jackie now devotes her time to her art. Educated in Georgia with a degree in education and further work in art at the University of South Carolina, Jackie has been doing commission work for over 25 years. A member of The Portrait Society of America, a Member of Excellence of the South Carolina Watercolor Society, and a Signature member of the Colored Pencil Society of America, Jackie now lives and works in Florence, S.C. She and business partner, Lynda English, have formed the Lynda English Studio and Gallery. She teaches open studio to adults as well as workshops in several media. “My hope is to explore the world of color and light, looking at things we see every day and recording them during a moment of magic.”

In August, 2004, Jackie won the top award for the International Colored Pencil Exhibition and the Cippy Award. This prize was given to the Nassau Lady VIII. Nassau Lady VIII is one of a series of 13 Nassau pieces.. Works from this series have won 14 awards for pieces in four different methods during the last eighteen months. “Although winning the Colored Pencil Award was sensational, I am particularly pleased that the entire series is being recognized. It is very important to me to work well in different media. I especially love taking a set of good photos this way and working them over and over in several techniques. It’s a wonderful learning experience and since many times they are figures, they seem to display not only the different facets of their personality, but the facets of my own as well.”

Come visit with us on Friday April 7th (or anytime during the month of April) and explore the wonder that is Jaclyn’s art.

Frame of Mind will also be hosting a Sunglass Trunk show (featuring Salt Life Sport Optics and Randolph Sunwear). Also a Pop Up Shop with Designer Candace Saxson and her new venture Altered on State.
