I am moving in a month to start grad school and I am having a big going away show!
I am going to have well over 20 pieces of original work (not including any high school or childhood pieces) and many prints as well. A lot of my paintings are going to be really really affordable because I want to find them good homes before I move, and make room for all the new work to come.
The show is called Lifeline: The Work That Has Sustained Me
and I am going to be doing something a little unusual.... displaying my work from when I was a child all the way up to the present. I am even showing the embarrassing stuff that no artist ever lets see the light of day!
Here is the official invite, and all the information: www.facebook.com/event.php?eid…
If you do not live in the area and would like to see an inventory of what is left after the show please send me an email: jessicajoyart@gmail.com
Hope to see any of you there!
Please pass this on to anybody you know in the Chicago area, it is going to be a really cool look into the development of an artist that is hard to come by.

Artist's Statement for Phenomena
Phenomena is a body of work curated from hundreds of paintings made over the last nine months. Each painting is an artifact of chance, conscious decision-making, fixed laws of natural phenomena (evaporation, surface tension, capillary action), and its surrounding environment. Within landscapes of evaporated puddles of ink, water, and remnants of other materials, interactions of innumerable variables reveal themselves in the details when you look closely.

Thesis year!
Hello all!
I have been completely distracted in graduate school for 2 years, and now I have my thesis year to go. I will do my best to share WIP pictures from now on. I wasn't sure what to post before because I have been working on one large installation instead of several small projects.
I thought I would share part of what I became aware of in the last two years about my process:
I do a lot of experimenting in my studio which has been leading me to my grad school finale also known as my thesis show. My challenge is to bring all the elements I have developed and bring them together in an interesting way.

Graduate School
Hello everybody,
You know that important thing I mentioned doing in February? Well, I was going for an interview at the University of Michigan. It consisted of two interviews with 6 faculty members and 2 current grad students. My first interview was brutal, but my second one went better. I left really unsure about what would happen. A month or so later I got a letter in the mail telling me I was on the wait-list. I thought it was a rejection... My thought process was, "who in the world would give up a spot in a 3 year paid MFA program????" and "where am I on this wait-list anyway?" I didn't sleep allll night long, not even for a second.
