Today I hit 100k Followers on my Instagram @jessillustrator!! I’m so grateful for the people who have supported my work over the years and allowed me to make my career sustainable! This is huge for me, as running my social media is one of the things I take a lot of pride in. My social media is a place where I am constantly trying to put positive energy & messages out into the world. As well as share my latest work and projects.
It all started with a $100 art budget, an Etsy shop, my brother building my first website, and no connections to anyone in the art or fashion world…just a dream. I hope it continues to inspire others to pursue their dreams.
Also, I have a new book cover my work was licensed to with the famous French Icon, Ines de la Fressange for her new book, Provence Style coming in German translation in 2027 linked below:
