Jade Magee is an emerging artist based in Northern Ireland. She works primarily in water mixable oils, creating intimate and striking portraits that invite the viewer into a moment of quiet acknowledgement - a recognition of the subject’s presence, character and lived story.

Alongside portraiture, Jade is an avid animal lover and is drawn to painting animals, and especially dogs, with a strong sense of expression and individuality. Her wider practice also explores landscape and floral works, where her approach becomes looser and more experimental. These pieces are deeply inspired by the Irish landscape and the ever-changing play of light across the natural world that surrounds her.

Across all subjects, Jade’s work is unified by a sensitivity to mood, light, and connection - whether capturing a human gaze, the spirit of an animal or the quiet poetry of the land.
