Artist Bio

"Wildlife has been the main interest in my art work.  I also do portraits.  Working in many mediums has given me a unique latitude when depicting art.  Pastel, oils and scrimshaw are the main mediums I use, but by no means the only ones.  I like the viewer to become involved in the art piece with their emotions as well as enjoying the images.  I paint what I know, what I see and what I have experienced."

Jessie uses Scrimshaw, which means "Nothing to Do," in her work.  Scrimshaw is Wooly Mammoth Ivory which is legal to own, buy, and or trade.
