Living all her life in DC, she's grown an appreciation for the streets she's walked and the importance of her familial bonds. This led to her applying to Georgetown University though she did not expect to get in; it was an opportunity encouraged by a college counselor. Her parents, both originally from El Salvador, saw the importance of education and supported her unconditionally. This also means that she would be one of the first generations to graduate from a university. One of the main reasons that Jessica pushed herself to succeed in art was to show how important family shifted her sensation of the world. With 3/6ths of her family being artistically inclined though not all skillfully, it became something she was always surrounded by. The shift to graphic design as a main pursuit happened during a summer camp. The camp was actually for coding and introduced Jessica to web design through HTML. This opened up the world to the digital aspect of art and she immediately fell in love.
In pursuing graphic design she's focusing on symbolism from their definition of ‘self’. Through her work, she guides you to different experiences that helped form her identity. Their style focuses on merging images, typography, and shape. The main aspects demonstrated are layers and transparency. The mediums she's currently working with are Illustrator and Photoshop. She's done projects on InDesign that showcase typefaces.
A great inspiration for her work has always been tied to her family. They have surrounded her with art and cultivated her passion. The bond of the family has intrinsically been a driving force of love that ignites what art she's willing to pursue. Their support has allowed the pursuit of graphic design. This in turn has opened many avenues and led to a passion for working with the digital world.
Currently, her usage of Illustrator and Photoshop is combined to represent the chaos of choosing graphic design. The many circles of mediums and places that she went through left a significant impact. She has created depth within her works through experimentation of layers, texture, and blending. Her style seems more reminiscent of typographical postmodernism.
