Jaye Alison Moscariello

My art is about connections, to self, community, nature or all three. As a young artist riding my bicycle through small roads that meandered along the edges of the woods on the way to school, I recall being thrilled with new leaves just unfolding and gently waving in the breezes. I felt them speaking to me. Darkened skies threatening to unleash thunder, rain and lightening also excited me greatly and inspired me to paint. https://www.singulart.com/en/artist/jaye-alison-36187?ref=ts

Painting-making art, being outside in the garden, the woods, at the beach anywhere in nature and cooking are some of my favorite things to do! My work responds to all climates; political, environmental, and personal. I often feel that change is the only constant, and my lessons from the trees are to bend a little, and communicate more.

Jaye Alison studied at Paier College of Art in Hamden, Connecticut where she acquired an abundance of great foundational skills; painting, drawing, composition, printing and more. In 1982 she moved to New York City.

She and sculptor Alexandra Carmel designed a program "Breaking Out" to unblock creative people. Art of Northeast America selected her work two consecutive years. New York was fruitful and energetic. “My art became more and more narrative, colorful and expressed what my words could not.”

West Coast warmth and new adventures beckoned and she moved to Hollywood. A tiny studio on Fairfax allowed her to explore a variety of themes including loss and isolation. In 1997 she was asked by a dear friend to help her with her new home. She traveled back and forth from Los Angeles to New York City, where she conceptualized a very unique personal artistic living environment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Working until 2000, with the architect, contractor, clients and various high end artisans, a beautiful and whimsical vision was realized. The work was highIy publicized. In Los Angeles, her work was exhibited in a diverse range of art shows. She found her dream studio in Santa Monica where she lived and worked for eight years.

Chase the Monkey, an ongoing series, is about re-connecting with nature so that one can heal and get back out into the world and enjoy all that life has to offer.

“One day my Chase the Monkey said "time to leave the City". And so I listened. In the process I fell in love, married and moved up to Northern California. Our farm there was two and a half acres situated in over 180 wildlife acres.”

Jaye Alison recently moved to the South Western Edge of the Berkshires, a place called Sandisfield, in Massachusetts.

Jaye Alison Moscariello harnesses water-based mediums like acrylic and watercolor, influenced by a creative upbringing and artistic journey. Through abstraction and intuitive color selection, she captures the interplay between forms, with lines that articulate deep-seated emotions. Her art resonates with joy and upliftment, transforming personal and worldly complexities into visual harmony.
