Joy Neasley Studios

With binoculars around her neck and a guidebook in hand, she set out on the hiking trail in search of birds. As she walked deeper into the woods, the sound of rustling leaves and chirping birds filled her ears, and her heart swelled with joy at the sight of a pileated woodpecker clinging to the trunk of a nearby tree. What if you could take that magic moment home? My name is Joy Neasley: Grandmother, Nature Observer, and Watercolor Artist. 

My watercolor wildlife captures the beauty and intricacy of nature in a unique and visually stunning way. It provides a sense of tranquility and peace, while also highlighting the importance of preserving our planet’s diverse flora and fauna. 

The value of bringing watercolor wildlife into the home is that they are not only beautiful and visually appealing, but they also have the ability to connect us to nature and inspire us to protect it. Watercolor wildlife art can be used to create a calming and peaceful atmosphere in any space, while also serving as a reminder of the beauty and importance of wildlife conservation. Additionally, my watercolor wildlife artwork, prints, and gifts have made thoughtful and meaningful presents for loved ones and friends who share a love for nature and wildlife.

My mission for painting watercolor wildlife art is to use the power of art to raise awareness about the beauty and fragility of the natural world. By creating realistic and detailed depictions of wildlife in their natural habitats, I aim to spark conversations about conservation and inspire others to take action to protect our planet’s ecosystems. Through art, I also strive to evoke a sense of awe and wonder in viewers, fostering a deeper connection to nature and a greater appreciation for its diversity and importance.
