My work is very much the same as a musician writing lyrics to a song or a writer writing a story .
Every painting tells a story .
I was very much influenced by fairy tales and fables as a child and took to the imagery of nature and in particular to the imagery of animals .
I loved being swept up into that world .
They became my friends and gave my soul a place to rest and tumble around .
The work is poetry with color and brush strokes .
My artist kitchen is filled with yummie ingredients , I delight in dipping into .
Every piece is a unique and magical experience with
often recurring characters , who show up and surprise me .
I hope to achieve beauty foremost and a sense of
home for the soul .
​If I can live in world with unicorns why won't I
Love jessika
