Apr 10, 2026

For Jamison Kaufman, art is more than just something to admire; it’s something to live with, share, and experience every day. With over 45 years of experience in graphic design, publishing, and fine art, Kaufman brings a unique perspective to her work. Through her brand, Heartlight Art, she reimagines traditional art and offers it in forms that integrate seamlessly into daily life, from home décor to personal accessories.

With a background in graphic design from Art Center College of Design, Kaufman has built a career that spans a diverse range of creative fields. She has worked in publishing magazines, designing and producing books, and even developed a children’s series inspired by her dog, Sophie. But it is through Heartlight Art that Kaufman truly captures the essence of what it means to connect with others through art.

Fine Art for a Fun Feeling

At the core of Heartlight Art is a simple yet profound philosophy: Fine Art for a Fun Feeling. Kaufman’s work embraces the idea that art should be joyful, accessible, and deeply connected to everyday experiences. Her expressive use of color, light, and human connection breathes life into her original paintings. Often featuring people, animals, and moments of shared experience, her art captures the “feeling beneath the moment”, the connection that unites us all.

Through Heartlight Art, Kaufman has created a body of work that goes beyond traditional art galleries. Her designs translate fine art into beautifully crafted functional pieces like tote bags, pillows, and other objects that are meant to be lived with and enjoyed. These pieces maintain the emotional impact of her paintings while adding a touch of color and joy to everyday life. Each item is signed by Kaufman, ensuring a personal connection between the artist and the collector.

A Unique Approach to Art

What sets Kaufman’s work apart from traditional fine art is her ability to blend beauty and function. Rather than being something that merely adorns a wall, her art is meant to be experienced and enjoyed in daily life. Her designs make it possible to carry a piece of art with you, whether through a colorful tote bag or a pillow that brightens up a living space. Kaufman believes that art should not just be something we visit; it should be something we live with.

"I believe that art is meant to bring joy, connection, and warmth into our lives. It should lift us up and connect us to one another," Kaufman says. "Heartlight Art is all about making fine art more accessible and integrated into everyday life, and that’s exactly what I aim to do with every piece I create."

Heartlight Art’s Growing Reach

Kaufman’s work is making waves, both online and in boutique stores. The Heartlight Art collection continues to grow, with expanding interest from lifestyle retailers. As more people discover her vibrant and emotionally resonant designs, Heartlight Art is finding its way into the homes of art lovers who crave connection, beauty, and joy.

Kaufman’s dedication to creating meaningful, accessible art resonates deeply with her audience. Whether through her original paintings or her thoughtfully reimagined art-inspired products, Kaufman’s work is a testament to the power of art to connect and uplift. Her guiding philosophy, “Fine Art for a Fun Feeling”, speaks to the broader movement toward emotionally resonant design that enhances everyday life.

What Makes Heartlight Art Different?

In a crowded market of traditional fine art, Kaufman’s Heartlight Art stands out for its focus on connection, spirit, and expressive color. Her works often feature vivid portrayals of human interaction, animals, and luminous movement. The result is art that feels both personal and universal, something that speaks to the heart of every viewer.

What truly sets Heartlight Art apart is Kaufman’s commitment to ensuring that every piece, whether a painting, pillow, or tote bag, maintains the emotional integrity of the original artwork. Her personal touch is reflected in every item, ensuring that her collectors not only own a piece of art but experience it in a deeply personal way.

A Commitment to Connection and Compassion

Beyond her artistic work, Kaufman is also committed to giving back to the community through her volunteer work with Rotary International and her ongoing support of animal rescue efforts. This reflects the same belief in connection, care, and shared human experience that shapes Heartlight Art. Kaufman’s values extend beyond the canvas, into the lives of those she works with, and through her commitment to charity and service, she brings more meaning to her work.
