Family Portrait
This four-part series explores the intimate connections she shares with her immediate family, with each painting representing a different family member through symbolic plant or floral imagery. These natural elements capture the essence of each person while reflecting the artist’s personal bond with them. A recurring motif throughout the series is the stencil of a dish mat, representing the flower of life geometric pattern. This symbol, drawn from Jessica’s childhood, embodies the full circle of life, growth, and transformation, showing how familiar memories evolve into meaningful artistic expression. The series celebrates the beauty of small moments and the nurturing relationships that shape both the artist’s life and creative journey. Each painting reflects love, strength, and resilience, weaving together themes of connection and personal growth. Through this work, Jessica honors her family’s influence and invites viewers to reflect on the ways in which everyday experiences and relationships blossom into something deeper and more profound.
Head Shots
This series reflects Jessica’s belief in the interconnectedness of creation, where backgrounds and subjects are not separate but evolve in harmony. By painting the canvases together on the floor, she embraced the unpredictability and spontaneity of the process, mirroring how life unfolds organically. The rubbing of canvases symbolizes how experiences and interactions leave imprints on us, shaping our unique textures and patterns. Each flower/plant figure emerges from the background like a portrait of self-discovery, suggesting that beauty and identity arise from the environments we grow within. The flowers’ poses, inspired by the shapes within the background, highlight the interplay between internal growth and external influence, underscoring Jessica’s message: just as flowers respond to light and space, we too bloom when we find our alignment within life’s natural flow.
Boundless Energy
This series reflects the journey we all undertake on our individual paths. Each flower figure, shaped by flowing lines of energy, symbolizes energy radiating outward, bouncing back to nurture and strengthen our inner selves. These figures represent the inner strength we carry as we radiate resilience and navigate life’s challenges. The bold, imperfect brushstrokes capture the beauty of life’s unpredictability—reminding us that even in our flaws, we are exactly as we need to be. These works encourage viewers to embrace the rhythm of their own journey, trusting in the natural flow of progress and setbacks. Through color, texture, and form, the series illustrates how growth often comes from within, unfolding at its own pace. Each painting tells its own story, symbolizing the uniqueness of every individual’s path, with its moments of struggle, discovery, and triumph. Together, they offer a collective reminder that we have everything we need within ourselves to bloom, no matter where life takes us.
Solos
This series embodies the belief that the most fulfilling way to live is by embracing your authentic self—without shame or apology. It encourages honoring who you are in every moment, trusting that self-acceptance is the root of true freedom. Each piece portrays a solo soul, capturing the raw beauty of individual emotions, unique personalities, and personal stories as they evolve through resilience. These figures dance, explore new skills, embrace their sensuality, and discover serenity, reflecting life’s endless journey toward self-actualization. Together, they celebrate the transformative power of growth, reminding us that we hold the strength to overcome challenges, thrive in our truth, and achieve anything we set our minds to. Through this series, Jessica emphasizes that self-love and authenticity are not only acts of courage but the ultimate way to live intentionally—unapologetically yourself and fully in bloom.
Falling in Love
This series tells the evolving love story between a flower and a leaf. The flower takes a chance on love, and the narrative unfolds in different ways, depending on how you arrange the pieces. In its current order, the leaf dives in, trying to rescue the flower. At first, the flower hesitates, thinking it's too good to be true. But in the end, they embrace, falling into each other’s arms and finding happiness together. However, the beauty of this series lies in its fluidity—outcomes aren't fixed. Rearranging the story can shift the meaning entirely. For example, the flower might fall first, leaving the leaf behind, creating a bittersweet ending, as if he lets her go. Each arrangement reveals a new layer of love, vulnerability, and the uncertainty of relationships.
Together
Each painting in this collection expresses the beauty of love through the intertwining of two souls, embracing one another as they are—flaws and all. These works capture the essence of authentic connection, presenting intimate moments and scenarios where love flourishes in its purest form. At the core of this series is the belief that self-love is the foundation for meaningful relationships. When we nurture ourselves, we cultivate the ability to extend that love outward—uplifting, supporting, and journeying with others through life’s highs and lows. These paintings invite viewers to reflect on the transformative power of love, connection, and the freedom found in embracing oneself and others without condition.
