About the Artist

 

Hi!

Thank you so much for visiting, it's great to "meet" you! I'm Jessica and I paint from a little table in my bedroom in Pittsburgh, PA. I'm married to Joe and we are blessed with four boys and a little one in heaven. 

I've enjoyed creativity since was a little girl, but I took a long break from anything "artsy" for many years since I didn't think my art was good enough. When I was a new mom I found myself scrolling Pinterest while I spent lots of time at home alone with my baby. I was inspired by all the beauty I saw there and I thought I'd try painting again. I started with a cheap watercolor set from Hobby Lobby and that began the painting journey I'm on today!

After countless hours practicing and observing other artists' work over the years, weaved among diapers, laundry and dishes, I've learned more about my own artistic style. I really enjoy painting with a variety of mediums -- from washy gouache and watercolors, to thick acrylics and soft pastels and pencils.... it's all so wonderful and fun to experiment with!

I'm so inspired by God's beautiful creation --Whether it's a pretty little rose, a gorgeous sky, or a sweet little animal, I just can't wait to try to express it through the paints.

I feel so strongly that God has used His gifts of art and creativity to help bring so much healing into my life. Painting has helped me to slow down, be still, and process life-- and has ultimately helped me to feel closer to God. 

I hope my artwork brings life and light into your heart and makes you feel safe, warm, and happy.

Thanks again so much for being here!

Love,

Jessica
