About the Artist

 

My name is Jess and I am the artist behind jesskvassoART.

I have always admired sapphic art and embodied the female gaze in everything I have ever done including my own women's swimwear and clothing company (now retired to focus on this). Since I can remember, I've loved the romance and power that is the female body. There is so much it can do, so much it can endure, and I try to capture what I see through my art. I am in constant awe of the seemingly opposite elements that exist harmoniously within a woman - strength and delicateness, beauty and danger, freedom and constraint, perfection and yet no trace of anything perfect. These juxtapositions are as poetic as they are melodic to me. With this, the inspiration to create my art was born.

Creating resin figures was never meant to become a business, but after playing around with it in May 2020, I posted a picture on Instagram (@jesskvasso) of a simple, clear bust figure I had completed and it immediately caught a lot of attention. Then I started a TikTok account (@jesskvasso) and several of the videos I posted about my resin figures went viral. Fast forward to now and my pieces are almost always sold out and the support is only growing - which I am so excited and grateful for. There's so much more to come!

Thank you for supporting me as an artist and my small business - it really does mean the world.
