Artist Statement:
In her paintings, variations of marks, from improvisational brushstrokes to detailed pattern work, create networks. Jessica choses specific color palettes and a variety of textures to evoke the varied emotions from human experience. Within her art, biomorphic forms exist in conjunction with elements of whimsy & glamour. She hopes the viewer is able to experience the climactic highs & lows of one of her pieces like when one listens to a symphony.
