You’re very gifted..the feeling of your artwork is the kind that I aspire to create but somehow lives more in my head than on my canvasses..I feel a shift at the midway point of this year that also encompasses much of what you spoke of, tuning in more, grounding, hearing more of what my soul is craving for the remainder of this year. I’m also approaching a very important birthday (my 65th…unreal) in October so it’s time to settle, to ground..I may have to dig up my Tibetan Buddhism books to remind me of what this life is about..Happiest Birthday and thank you for sharing such beautiful artwork and videos❤

I am 64 and I tell my daughters, who are in their 30s, that there is so much to look forward to. I believe as a woman in her 40s there is so much opportunity to exercise acquired confidence, further define self and acceptance, as well as take thoughtful and strategic risks. Life is a series of zigs and zags! It’s also a time to refine what you like as well as what you don’t like. You go girl. P. S. Saw your vid with you and your Dad. Beautiful. Daughters make men - better men. And good fathers set the bar for future husbands. Love your work. ❤️

I’m new to this channel and have loved the videos. As I perused your collection, there appeared to be a distinct timeline between the type of art you are creating. It seems like the earlier pieces are of animals and flowers and your later collection is more abstract. Is there a backstory you would be willing to share? Also, wondering the same about the change in hairstyle. If too personal, please disregard and thank you for your videos.

Hello Judy, welcome and yes that's true, the direction of my path has changed a lot in these past eight years. I started my channel to share the process of becoming a children’s illustrator and learnings along the way. I started creating the abstracts at the same time in response to a request from a friend who worked in the business, but kept the channel focused on the illustration. Over time it became clear that the art was much more enlivening, natural and supportive than the illustration. So slowly, I stopped and turned fully towards what I wanted to devote my attention. As for the hair, I shaved it for a zen ceremony and never looked back. 🥰 xj

Hi Jess. I SO love your videos. You inspired me to take a sumi-e painting class at the Denver Botanical Gardens last week. I’ve been loving it as a meditation! Thank you. . . I’m a fellow Zen practitioner of 30 years (Suzuki is also my Zen grandfather) and practice contemplative painting too. As a serendipitous moment, I read this poem by the amazing Mary Oliver for the first time this morning. So perfect to share with your video. . . Praying by Mary Oliver It doesn’t have to be the blue iris, it could be weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones; just pay attention, then patch a few words together and don’t try to make them elaborate, this isn’t a contest but the doorway into thanks, and a silence in which another voice may speak. (Shared by a younger woman Zen teacher and poet this morning in a Buddhist Film and Arts workshop this morning in Boulder.) Lovely to feel the joy of practice as speaking from another voice together. . . So appreciate your videos. They always make me want to go paint!
@studioxjessАй бұрын
Warm bows and thank you for saying hello. :) I bet we know some of the same people, the Soto Zen realm can be quite intimate! Oh my goodness... reading that poem this morning gave me shivers of life. Ah, Mary Oliver, there is a wonderful interview with her On Being (with Krista Tippett) that I return to often. And ah, you live in a place that has been sacred to me. My Nana (the original artist) lived in Colorado Springs (they were air force) for my entire life. So I would visit the Springs, Boulder, Denver, and all over the Rockies each year. Always felt the pine stitch on my rakusu was a nod to that spirit... whatever it was I felt amongst the rocks and the pines in Colorado never left me. It is lovely to have you sharing these moments, truly so meaning to me. <3
