Meet Jessie!
Each work I create is a story. My paintings navigate in different dimensions, exploring collective thoughts, the real and UNREAL. They exist in a place where vision is superfluous and intuition is my tool. My paintings are a perfect balance between harmony and anarchy.Using brushes, rollers, spray paint and pastel, I work with layers applying different techniques to create depth and texture. The relationship between the different mediums is my motivation. Modern colors act also as tools, so that my paintings emulate the rhythm of nature and life.I translate my energy piece by piece so that each work can have its own effect on my viewers. Translating my knowledge as a reiki master is absolutely fundamental for me.

How did your business come to exist?
I met my husband in Burning Man. Move to the US from Canada to be with him, and left my job as an optician to become a full time artist. It's always been my dream and Covid made me take gigantic leap of faith and focus on the things that really matters to me. We both love nature and that is one of the reason for chose Denver to me our home.
Where do you find your inspiration?
I find my inspiration by meditating and there is nothing like nature to bring you back to you authentic self! It's really challenging to start over in a new country, and having the courage to show up to enter communities.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
The best advice I receive was... In doubt? Sit and paint. Meaning to stop worrying about all the other stuff and focus on the why I am here.
