DANCIN' TREE ART STUDIO

Creating art has been my crutch. It has been the constant companion that has stayed true to me. My art has always been a friend when there was none, and my solace for an emotional release. The work I have created marks my inner balance and my need for stimulation.

ARTIST BIO

Jessica LeMere is a self-taught artist. living in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia with her husband and two sons. She paints on wood, using a layering process of pyrography, watercolors, and colored pencils. This layering process allows the natural beauty of the wood grain to shine through her pieces.

"Sometimes I choose the wood for a particular project and sometimes the wood chooses me and tells me what it wants. Sounds silly, yes, but just ask Geppetto (Pinocchio): he would understand."

Jessica was previously a member of the Ice House Artists' Cooperative and a member of the Berkeley Art Works Artists' Cooperative. Her work has been featured in the 8th and 10th annual Art & Earth Exhibition at the Berkeley Art Works Gallery. She had several works featured in the Trash Art Exhibition at Ice House Gallery.
