Jessica has studied at Goldsmiths College, London and Falmouth School of Art. Jessica's paintings are about particular memories and experiences which she records in sketchbooks. The isolated images in their painted world stand as signifiers - like short poems - to convey those overwhelming moments of understanding and feeling that life can occasionally dish up. Jessica writes 'I strive to achieve perfect balance in my paintings. Shape, form and colour are built up by the applications and removal of layer upon layer of acrylic and pencil on the canvas. Precision of composition is of the utmost importance: as is the uncluttered simplicity that leaves much for the audience to read between the lines'.
