Hi, I'm Shelby

I paint watercolors of places that make me feel something.

Right now, that place is Scotland. I haven't been yet, so I'm painting my way there one castle, cottage, and misty hillside at a time, until I can finally see it for myself.

I want every painting to feel like stepping into another world, and I want you to feel like you're taking a real piece of that place home with you.

Shelby Jo Art is just me. I paint every piece by hand, answer every message myself, and pack every order with care. I pour my heart into every piece, and hope that each one can provide an escape into a different world.

• Made by hand

  Every original is painted with real watercolor on paper, so no two are ever the same.

• Made for you

  Commissions start with your story, and I'll share sketches and progress photos along the way.

• Made with care

  Each order is signed, wrapped, and packed so it arrives safely.
