Sacred artist June Jameson was trained in both Old Masters classical realism and French impressionism, and she is recognized for developing a distinct style of portraiture that blends both traditions.

That artistry can be seen on display in numerous homes that have prints of her paintings. Her Marian-themed artwork is particularly popular.

“I painted Our Lady of Grace, which is very feminine, very motherly, when I had a 6-week-old baby. Our Lady is surrounded by all those flowers,” Jameson told the Register. She put it on Etsy, and customers clamored, with Jameson selling more than 10,000 prints.

Patrons have commissioned Jameson to paint portraits in oil, reflecting this multitalented artist’s characteristic delicacy and depth of feeling. Her painting of St. Maximilian Kolbe won one of the top prizes in the Catholic Art Institute’s international “Sacred Art Prize 2025” competition.
