Announcement
Hello and welcome to my Store! I make paintings using words, poetry and Bible passages.
My name is Jamie Poole and I am an artist and designer living and working in the little town of Irthlingborough in the United Kingdom.
Literature and poetry is the starting point for my artwork. I decided that I wanted to make images from the poems that I love and combine this with my life long passion as a visual artist.
The first major painting I made was of my wife Sophie who is an English teacher. I used her favourite poems to make a giant portrait of her using a collage technique. Words were meticulously cut out and glued down to form her portrait - it took ages to make!
Check out all of my work here: www.jamie-poole.com
Since then I have accepted a number of commissions using this technique including one which now hangs in Harvard University in the USA. I have also been commissioned by BBC's one show t make a portrait of YB Yeats.
During this time I have crafted smaller artworks inspired by lino cut print making which also uses words but is inspired by poetry and Bible passages which you can see for sale in my store!
I hope you enjoy looking at them!
Please contact me anytime if you have any questions or special requests.
Also, you could stay in touch with what I am doing next by signing up to my newsletter at www.jamie-poole.com
Thanks and God Bless!

5 out of 5 starsMy first order went missing and the shop owner kindly sent me another packet. Though a bit late for the holiday season, I’m grateful for the how accommodating the artist was and still plan to gift these cards on. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsI loved this design and thought my parents would too - we all agreed we recognised the location which brings back some great memories. It seems like a good quality tea towel too so hopefully it will either get some use or end up on show.

5 out of 5 starsI bought 2 crosses from Jamie, the Home Prayer cross and the Noah’s Ark cross. Both are beautiful and surpassed my expectations. They’re lovely keepsake gifts of good quality. Everyone who has seen them has said the same. They came in a sturdy gift box with a surprise free card of Jamie’s art. There was a bit of a wobble in exporting these to Ireland but Jamie quickly sent replacements to a relative in the UK. I’ll definitely buy Jamie’s art again. Really beautiful!

Everyone who has seen them has said exactly the same. They came in sturdy gift boxes with a ribbon and a surprise gift card of Jamie’s art. There was a bit of a wobble with export to Ireland, but Jamie was most helpful and had replacements delivered very quickly to my relative in the UK instead. I will definitely buy Jamie’s art again. Just beautiful!
