Meet Jeleata Nicole
Spending my days working as a professional artist is a dream come true.
I sometimes still can’t believe it; it feels surreal! I want my work to stand for something, and a way to give back. God has given me a talent and I want to use that talent and share my passion with the world. Portraiture fills me with happiness, especially children’s portraits. The innocence of their being is just so precious, but not all are so blessed. A portion of my sales is donated to Compassion International. A church based charity that helps children and families suffering from poverty. I have made it my job to use my gift to give back to those in need. It is all thanks to the love and support of my family, my husband, and every customer who has invested in welcoming my artwork into their home.
When my husband surprised me with one of Nicole's custom paintings of my late father, I was absolutely speechless. Not only was the painting meticulous, life like and well made, but it captured the essence of my fathers in a way that I can not adequately describe. It is a fixture in my home and always will be. My youngest child will even point to it and say "Grandpa" and everyone that enters comments on how beautiful it is. I can not say enough about how much this painting means to me. I will forever be grateful that Nicole chooses to share her artistic gift with the world.

Nicole not only was a pleasure to work with, but the art that she came up with for me was beyond amazing!!! I can't wait to use her again.

I was speaking at a recovery event. Talking about the loss of my son, Tony. The loss of a child is an incredible pain. Nicole walked up to me after I was done speaking and said, “Thank you for sharing your story and your pain. Do you have a photo of your son?” I said, “I do.” She said, “I would love to paint a portrait of him if you would like.” I immediately said, “yes”. But what I thought would be a portrait of my son was actually an image of his soul. Nicole had not only captured his image, but she captured the essence of his soul. And for that I am eternally grateful. There are no words to thank her enough.

When we lost our most treasured memory from our trip to Italy, we were devastated! But Nicole created a beautiful piece that perfectly captured our trip and redeemed what we had lost. When I surprised my husband with this special painting, he wept! Thank you Nicole, for perfectly representing our most cherished memories of Italy - your beautiful work will grace our home for many years to come.
