Jessica Von Feldt is a local artist native to Colorado, AKA Jessi Von. As a multimedia artist, she creates many works in all mediums of paint, primarily oil, detailed graphite illustrations, clay sculpting and digital.

Her current work expresses organic elements inspired by nature such as clouds, plants, animals, etc. She then blends her designs with a unique surreal effect creating a playful contrast of shape, color and texture, aiming to emanate a unique sense of relaxation and imagination for the viewer.

Who/What are your biggest influences?

My biggest influences are my Partner and my family first of all, they are always encouraging me and supporting my creative process. As far as artists, I have always been drawn to surrealism such as works by Remedios Varo, Salvador Dali, Alphonse Mucha, Frida and Georgia O'keefe, etc etc. I just love that they practically create entire dimensions with their work.

What is your dream project?

My dream project is to continue creating works of all kinds with the content focusing to bring more awareness to our planet, oceans, rainforests, plants, & animals etc. In hopes to inspire true change and a heightened respect, as well as donating more from the art to helpful organizations.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration through the beauty of all things nature, of course! Paying attention to little details and how colors and shapes come together. As well as checking out art galleries/museums to see many different great creations, it really inspires me to keep going.
