Hi, I'm Jessica. I'm just turning 30 and live with my husband (married last April), our fluffy dog, Luca, and our grumpy cat, Crusty. In July, we'll be adding a little girl to the family.
My husband is equally creative, a graphic designer, motion graphics artist and filmmaker by trade. We share a workspace that is the artistic heart of our home and probably my favorite room in the house.
I was raised by my mother who is, in my opinion, a far better artist than I, as well as the source of my artistic talent. I do believe art can be genetic and hope I pass that gene on to the baby. I have always drawn, crafted, painted and printed and feel it will always be a part of my life. However, when I'm not creating or crafting, I read as much as I can, watch a lot of movies (comes with being married to a film nerd) and play a few videogames here and there.
Cursive Art started as original paintings (which I still do from time to time) but became mostly a card shop when I wanted to find a way to get my art out there in a way that was affordable and useful and a bit original. Thus, I started researching into way to make my own prints, and found out about linocuts. In no time, I was carving my first one and it's only gone from there. I actually love printmaking just as much as illustration (if not more) and it's become my main medium. However, I love art in all it's forms and also often use watercolors, acrylics and chalk pastels, when not doing printmaking.
