Our Story

Hailey Mealey, owner of Hailey Jane Co., enjoys the freedom and flexibility through her varying seasonal research and her art. Graduating with a Bachelor’s in Biology in 2019, Hailey has partaken in several different research positions, surveying rare damselfly species throughout Maine, identifying native bees of Maine, mosquito surveillance and vegetative habitat assessments across Nevada.

Exploring new ecosystems and learning about the flora and fauna around Maine and elsewhere often inspires Hailey’s work. During the winter months when Hailey is not in the field, she works as an artist.

Business began in 2016 during school, while selling hand painted watercolor portraits to help with rent. Since then, Hailey’s work has gained popularity throughout Western Maine, and has been sold in several different states throughout the country.

Hailey mainly works in watercolors, acrylics, and resin but loves to experiment with new mediums. While custom work is a priority during holiday season, she has several prints, hand painted necklaces, and resin jewelry she releases throughout the winter months.
