Art
Using the fluidity and versatility of watercolors, I explore themes related to architecture, placemaking, and memories, evoking emotions and capturing the sense of place and discovery. Each work is a unique, expressive blend of hand-drawn charm and modern watercolor techniques.
Design
In design, I engage in a diverse range of creative endeavors, like site specific installations, public art, and interior design. Drawing on my experience working for Louis Vuitton Architecture, I bring a unique and refined sense of aesthetics.
Illustrations
As a versatile illustrator with corporate experience, I can empathize with and understand client needs, delivering final products beyond images. Offering flexible licensing options and a wide range of services that can be tailored to budget, I strive to exceed expectations and foster long-lasting partnerships.
Workshops
Customized creative workshops catering to diverse audiences, in all ages and skill levels. From engaging the community at events to facilitating corporate training and team-building sessions, my workshops are designed to inspire, educate, and foster meaningful connections through hands-on experiences.
Travel Sketching
I frequently embark on journeys to build rich experiences and refine my skills through sketching. Drawing inspiration from captivating destinations, I document the sense of discovery. I am also available for commissions abroad to bring my unique artistic perspective to create custom art in diverse locations.
Consulting
Comprehensive branding and consulting services infused with elevated elements, digital or analog. I specialize in creating unique and captivating brand identities that leave a lasting impression. Additionally, I offer one-off special editions or seasonal works, allowing organizations to engage their audience with limited editions or artistic creations that add a touch of exclusivity.
COMMISSIONS
Thank you for your interest in having me create art for you.
Commissioned art is a truly unique, made just for you or for your brand. They are created in my signature style and look – as my viewers put it, bright yet subtle with cohesive colours, evoking a sense of calm and understated beauty. They strike an ideal balance between uniqueness to your subject and universal appeal, making them excellent gifts for your loved ones or VIPs.
PROCESS
- After the initial consultation, an invoice will be presented to you for the deposit (typically 50%). Work is accepted and confirmed once payment has been processed.
- Depending on the discussion, 1-2 thumbnail(s) may be provided throughout the draft stages for your feedback. As works are handmade, there will be uniqueness or immaterial differences to the thumbnail and the actual painting/illustration.
- Not all feedback or change requests may be incorporated, due to style, complexity, vision, and/or compositional conflicts. I work best when given freedom, trust, and creative control of my art – thank you in advance for trusting in my vision.
- If we have creative differences after the thumbnails have been presented, either party has the option to terminate the work. If the full commissioned art amount has been paid, 50% will be refunded. The deposit is not returned.

“Thank you so much for your wonderful watercolour workshop, Jessica! I was so impressed watching you calmly instruct today’s multiple participating groups, especially how you catered to the various ages and experience levels. The projects worked really well, and everyone clearly appreciated making a special summer keepsake while learning new skills.”

“Jessica is so talented! I appreciated the small little details that I didn’t even notice in the photo that was in the artwork. This speaks to her eye for detail as an artist. It was also a pleasure working with Jessica. She was prompt in responding to my request and while she listened to my suggestions, also had her own creative opinion which helped to create a great final product.”
