About

Chi chi the squirrel and me.

Hey my friends!! Thank you so much for stopping by Nature of Joy art.

It really means the world to me that you are here. My name is Jessica and I have such a desire to speak hope and faith in your life through the art God has placed in my heart!!!!

I have been a full time photographer of portraits with my hubby for thirteen years plus taking pictures of my garden and back yard friends. I love to paint and create with the vision to see my art in your home and life so that you are inspired daily to seek God in a deep way though reading his word and worship. I like to inspires others to try gardening again, easy DYI projects that can inspire your creativity, to grow your own fruits, veggies and herbs as much as you can, try a new craft, step out into something new and above all else SEEK Christ .

My YouTube channel is also the place I love to show art and creativity to lead the viewer on a journey of growth and deep connection. When we take care of our hearts and souls everything else in life will be impacted .

I create art pieces with my photography mixed with my paintings, hand painted pieces on wood, glass jar creations with dried flowers from my garden, homemade items of every kind and so much more. I hope the art inspires you. You can check out my two art shops and also order directly through me original pieces and prints.

I am on this journey in life with my beloved husband of 22 years who has been creating art right beside me. He has been such an inspiration in my life to seek God and all He has placed in my heart to show his GLORY. He has been encouraging me for years with nature of joy to step out. He is my right hand with our photography company and he creates epic art pieces , custom knives done by a blacksmith and he also does music and spoken word.

I love growing in my relationship with Christ, reading the word of God, spending time with my beloved hubby , being a wifey, GI GI (new title for 2 years and my heart is so full of joy) gardening wild woman, plant mom of over 500 plants, expressing myself through my style, cooking and baking, reading and writing, drawing, painting, gardening, creating content to inspire, music , coffee and tea, beautiful things to look upon and growing every day.

Life is such a beautiful journey of growth , joy, overcoming, learning new things and finding joy in lasting truth. My hope is that when you come to the Nature of joy you will get refreshed, encouraged, inspired and that you heart will be touched in a lasting way with JOY. That you will have a cup of coffee or tea and look through the images on the pages and let your heart smile.

I want you to look at all the beauty God has created and the uniqueness of every color, petal , flower , animal and let them shout and sing for Joy that God is the GRAND ARTIST! For you will be reminded of the beauty all around you and that you are LOVED by GOD XO -Jess
