“I invite viewers to enter environments where presence and perception transfigure the ordinary into extraordinary.”

“Sun Rays and Dark Sand” | Hand applied color to archival print | 10″ x 15″ | $350
Imagine standing on black sand on a cloudy, foggy, misty morning when suddenly sun rays break through illuminating parts of the landscape.
Jaimie Ladysh is an interdisciplinary artist from Texas whose work is primarily in lens-based media. Rooted in a deep sense of place, her imagery often evokes ethereal qualities that invite viewers into a dialogue of connection—between self, nature, and the universe.
Pastoral Dreams
Hand applied color to archival print | 10″ x 15″ | $350
Think of dreaming about a velvety soft rolling hills next to a beautiful small pond, with a lone tree.
Each work is a quiet convergence of lens, hand, and soul—where photographs breathe with new life.
Rising
Hand applied color and encaustic wax to an archival print | 12″ x 16″ | $350
As the mist rises from the small pond, soft ethereal sunrise colors of pinks and blues lift up from the water’s surface.
“My landscapes explore the natural, the spiritual, and the internal where the visible world can transform into another kind of magical world. “
Star Gazing
Hand applied color to an archival black and white print | 10″ x 15″ | $350
Deep into the night as the clouds drift slowly past, a few stars pop out and all are reflected into the lake with dark mountains standing watch.
Viewers often describe Jaimie’s art as ethereal.
“All images begin as black and white photographs. Once printed, they are transformed by my addition of hand applied color.
Some images are Photo Encaustics, which begin as a black and white print adhered to a hard, wooden substrate. After hand-coloring these, I finish them using encaustic painting techniques, which involves mixing colored pigments with a heated wax medium.”
Through The Meadows To The Sea
Hand applied color to an archival print | 12″ x 18″ | $425
A soft and slowly meandering river winds through the marshland on its path to the sea.
“My images are meditations of light, spirit, myth, and magic.”
