"I know this beautiful girl Caitlin, she’s very quiet and 21 years old. Sometimes I go to her for advice. Her beautiful mind makes a safe space for others. I don't think she’s the type that will stand on a stage, but she is the type that reminds you it’s all going to be okay."
Jess has been teaching art for 20 years and has been a finalist in numerous art prizes including the Archibald Prize, the Shirley Hannan Art Award, the Lester Prize, the Brisbane Portrait Prize, the Percival Portrait Prize and the International ARC Salon Competition. Jess is the principal & founder of Art School Co. on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
