Welcome to Jordana’s Art.
Welcome to my art gallery. Art to me is more about pursuing a deeper and more vibrant relationship with the world around me, than per se, creating one masterpiece at a time. I wake up and try to move beyond productivity and duties, and invite new ways to create beauty and joy in my life. I don’t always have a lot of time to dedicate to painting, to my work below is a real testament to myself, and pat on the back, for making it happen. I am an herbalist and work with plants in many different ways, so my landscape paintings take on a different meaning than just painting what I see. The land is a part of me, and its transformations are also the signals that transform my life as well. Each place I paint has created a type of kinship that is more profound than the results of a final finished piece of art. Thank you for viewing.

Landscape Paintings
Since I moved to Tuscany, I started a landscape painting series called “I hear you; I am listening.” This is an ongoing exploration of going beyond the act of painting en plein air and seeking to connect with nature and listen to her using all my senses. I have only lived in Tuscany for five years, but as the years continue, I witness the patterns and the cycles of the changing landscapes, the seasons, the harvests, the rains, the winds, the sunsets, the wildflowers, and the agriculture . . . I find myself deeply interwoven in her life force. With my landscape paintings, I seek to go deeper than just a visual representation of the gorgeous and iconic place of Tuscany that I am fortunate to call my home.














Portraiture
Portrait painting is my roots and my heart in painting. As much as the landscape connects me to a place, it’s the people who keep me there or keeps me coming back. I recently lamented to myself that I did not do a landscape painting of each special place in the world that I have traveled and lived, but I am just realizing now that I have indeed painted a portrait of some of the people who have touched my heart from those places.





















Vineyard Series
Wine label inspired paintings of old vines and their energetics on paper.










Caribbean Art, Turk and Caicos
It was in Turks and Caicos during the 1990s that I truly discovered myself as an artist. I had met a band of Rastafarians in a local part of the town called King’s Town and they asked me to paint their portraits. It was during that trip that I realized that I could paint portraits. Over the years I developed deep friendships with many of them and have traveled to the island for over thirty years. I lived on the island for a year in the early 2000s and sold my work through the local gallery. My brother Michael still lives on the Island and owns a restaurant called Bugaloo’s Conch Crawl in Five Cayes.













Belize, Central America
When I was 15 and living in NYC, I spent the summer in a small town called Bullet Tree Falls in Belize, Central America. It was a life changing experience. It took me another six years to finally return back to Belize and the family that I had lived with - but after that I visited often, until I finally tried living there, in the jungle for half a year in the early 2000s. I wish I produced more art during my time in Belize, but I guess it being such an adventurous place I was always on the go.
