Hello, my name is Jes. My pronouns are she/her/they/them. I am a multidisciplinary artist practicing in drawing, painting, mixed media art, poetry, book arts, and video. Sometimes, I dabble in fiber art too! I love shapes, patterns, bright colors, curvy uneven lines, watercolor, collage, paper, yarn, pixels, and found images. My work is rooted in play, vulnerability, experimentation, collaboration, DIY approaches, and the blending of disciplines. I am often working on multiple projects at once. I am a pretty curious person!
I am also passionate about bringing people together, providing arts access services, and offering support to other creatives. I think artists are the true social workers of the world!
When I am not in my studio, you can find me blogging, consulting, and organizing community-based projects, classes, groups, screenings, and exhibitions. Learn more about me here.
My website is a little under construction right now so please pardon the lack of content or detail. Hang tight as I update and get things more current. Just going through some changes!

NEWS! News!
New public art with Eagan Art House
Witness the continuously evolving outdoor exhibit, Momentary Certainties. I am among many other artists showing artwork that activates the natural landscape around the Eagan Art House and explores temporality and change.
Exhibit dates: September 10 - October 28, 2021
Opening reception: Saturday, September 11, 10 AM - 12 PM
Exhibit hours: 10:00 am - 4:00 pm, Monday - Sunday
Eagan Art House
3981 Lexington Avenue, S. Eagan, MN, 55122
My piece, "Interconnected," reflects upon the movement of the wind. It also expresses an enduring appreciative and thoughtful relationship with nature. As the flags shift and move with the weather, natural and unpredictable changes occur. Abstract in style and technique, my artwork often evokes images of unique expressive color meditations
