Meet Jes.

A Tennessee girl, born and raised, Jessi (Smith) Simpson is the quintessential blend of talent, style, creativity, and spirit. She is a multi-faceted personality that works well in many mediums and genres.

Jessi’s parents, Sharon and Scott, fostered this creative spirit of Jessi’s by adding dimension, insight, and awareness to her life and to her art. As a young girl, Jessi witnessed a well known artist and designer create a portrait of her sister, Zan. The die was cast in that moment and Jessi did her own drawing of her sister. That drawing remains a treasured keepsake and reminder that art is born in the artist and waits for its moment to emerge.

Jessi was blessed to be trained and influenced by both O’More School of Design and Watkins School of Art. Those years at O’More and Watkins gave Jessi the tools of the trade, the foundations of good design, but more importantly the ability to reach beyond the norm, seeking the new, fresh and innovative options for her craft and her clients.
