Jessica Lily is an award-winning watercolor artist based in metro Atlanta, known for her luminous botanical paintings. A lifelong creative, she studied Fine Arts at the University of Georgia and worked professionally as a photographer and designer before returning to her first love: watercolor.

Jessica’s current work explores the emotional and symbolic language of plants, light, and place, blending realism and abstraction in her ongoing Garden Portals series. Her paintings have been featured in juried exhibitions across the Southeast and have received national recognition. As a teacher, Jessica brings over 20 years of experience in the arts to her workshops, offering accessible, encouraging instruction rooted in curiosity, skill-building, and joy.

She believes that art is for everyone, and that every classroom is a space where both teachers and students learn from each other. Whether painting sweet animals or bright florals, Jessica invites students to slow down, chase the light, and rediscover their own creative voice.
