Jacqulyn’s love for color, texture, and style is a life-long leaning. She grew up in an atmosphere of beauty, creativity and cultivated a deep appreciation for art. Her father’s hobbies were crafting fine gold and silver jewelry, and at a very young age, she began to help design special pieces with him . He was also an artist and collector of antiques. They would spend hours together, as he taught her about artistry in countless forms and admiring his latest painting or acquisition.

Her passion for expression ranges from the vocal arts, public speaking, writing, stage design, table scape, interior design, photography, drawing and painting.

Along the way, Jacqulyn realized she felt at home with a paintbrush and painting soon became her go-to outlet. She soon began painting special request items for her friends and family and now for commission.

When her youngest daughter headed to college, she and her sister decided it was time to create together. She collaborated with her and introduced, “So Blue Monogramme”, an instagram account dedicated to the art of monogram on fine linens. She designed the monogram motif, layout, presentation and photographed each, while her sister put her hands to the artistry of embroidery creation.

So Blue’s focus shifted to design presentations exclusively, and So Blue Designs was born from a natural creation process and desire to elevate interior space.

Jacqulyn is a self-taught artist of landscape, coastal and abstract paintings in mixed mediums in diverse forms. Her pieces present with depth, dimension and color interest. She has collaborated with Interior Designers of Beaufort Linen Co. and All Through the House, who carry her work.

She and her husband of 35 years. have three grown children and two grandchildren - these are her favorite works of art.

Jacqulyn’s hope is that what she creates will bring joy to your home and a special component to your world.
