I am a "Hapa", (mixed blood) artist with Hawaiian, Chinese, French/Spanish heritage and a S.F. Bay Area native. 
​
Having a multicultural identity informs my work richly as well as experiences of being a barrier-breaking woman artist during the past 40 years.
​
I work consistently hoping my colorful and distinctive work emanates joy and peace 
expressing respect for the people, land and culture of Asia and Polynesia.

I strive to express the vibrant spirit of landscapes, tropical birds and flowers, dancers and people tending to their daily work by bringing them to life with harmonious colors and bold compositions.
 
Exhibiting in the S.F. Bay Area, Santa Fe, NM and Hawaii for the past 3 decades.

I immensely enjoyed teaching University level Printmaking, Drawing and Painting to Art majors and non-Art majors as an elective class for many years between the listed dates.

A Story:
For two decades I had happily flourished as a professional artist, community arts educator, and CSUEB Professor. Suddenly I found myself being laid off for the third time from the University due to state budget cuts. During that lay off I watched tenured professors lose their jobs right along with me! 
​
Soon after, with no work options in my field, I worked in an extremely high stress job as a medical device and biologics sales rep. servicing a spinal surgeon. I was responsible for ordering, delivering and verbally supervising spinal implants and biologics in the operating room during the procedures. I had to give instructions and recommendations to surgical techs and the surgeons on the spot!

For the first month I went home every night covered in hives from head to toe. It was so awful! The level of stress I was experiencing was nothing I had ever trained for or been prepared for. I also noticed my peers in the O.R. suffering from high levels of stress as well. I decided that I would try to help them and myself so I created my first Art Class Inc. Creativity Events for the staff of the O.R.
​
At the event there was pure joy and relief for everyone! I watched each person laugh, recover from their stress exhaustion and become enlivened. It was right then I knew that this art based wellness program model would work! It has been 10+ years of R & D since then and Art Class Inc. brings wellness to all who try it!
Hooray!

Jacqueline Ford and Hi-Mana Studios is spreading ALOHA with NFTs & Web3 community events and education.
The HulaGirl NFT project was found between 3 creatives who found in common their passion to live and share ALOHA.
The collection is hand drawn and made of over 1000 generated traits. It is a complex and carefully crafted fine art collection that delivers positive island vibes and beautiful visual escapes into the tropical for all!
Jacqueline Ford's base company is : Art Class Inc. This wellness company is committed to bringing creativity to the workplace enabling companies to support and invigorate the organizational health, innovation, and culture within their company. Our work is to restore individual creativity resulting in happier and more productive teams. We believe that making art is nourishing for the spirit and the mind in the same way that food restores the body.

Brain Changes             
Todays' work is mostly left brain activity being analytical and linear. Creative activity lets the left side of the brain rest while stimulating the right side. What results is the whole brain working together at a far superior capacity and strength -both sides are firing off equally.

Mental Health Improvement  
Immediate Increase of your psychological resilience and resistance to stress, and smiles too.

Hormone shift                                       
Your stress hormone Cortisol drops immediately. Your feel good hormone Dopamine then rises which boots your drive, focus and concentration.

Fun
The team has great fun and each person experiences a Brain plus Body boost by making Art. 
We make play at work at Art Class inc.!
