My Story

My name is Jess and I have been a nurse for the past 16 years. My artistic journey started not too long ago when I needed a coping mechanism during the pandemic. As with many people, I think Covid was a time in which I was forced to become self-reflective and find an understanding of my depths and capabilities. For me, I discovered the magic art held for my soul and the peace it provided. I have always loved art but I didn’t realize I was a painter until this time. It is still odd for me to consider myself an artist because so much of my identity has been wrapped up in my nursing career. Nevertheless here I am, an artist, creating every day and with a simple wish to share my creations, thoughts about art, and simple joyous acts with you.
